Synopsis
A stark story rooted in the local culture and community of a Cornish fishing village. Rugged cliffs, working hands, clashing classes, retribution, high tide, beauty, anger, compassion and hope. Shot on grainy 16 mm b/w stock and processed by hand, Bait explores how marginal places are facing up to a changing world: the state of the nation seen through a family lens.
