The Man Who Needed A Traffic Light (2003)
One of the Bait director’s earliest shorts is a nightmarish vision of life spent behind the wheel, where time melts and car becomes prison. Despite its low budget, The Man Who Needed A Traffic Light sews all the seeds for Bait, and shows the vision in progress of one of Britain’s most exciting filmmakers.

A study of modern social dislocation, via an open and frank conversation between the conscious and the unconscious; a partly fabricated first person diary concerned with truth rather than fact, where the line between reality and fantasy is danced upon without apology.

29 Hour Long Birthday (2022)
British filmmaker Mark Jenkin (whose latest feature Enys Men is part of this year’s Main Slate) mails this postcard from a melancholic holiday in New York and its environs, rendering the city in grainy monochrome Super 8 and a familiar urban soundtrack of jackhammers and traffic hum. In voiceover, the filmmaker relates his experiences of celeb-spotting and visiting movie locales, buying overpriced essentials, and counting MAGA bumper stickers on Long Island.

London (2015)
"In 1993 I travelled to London from Cornwall with the intention of shooting a music video for 'London' by The Smiths. I had transcribed the lyrics and noted the timings and had then made a detailed shot-list. The whole thing would be edited in camera on a single roll of Super 8. Over the next few years I projected the film so many times that much of it became damaged. Here is what is left of that first roll, inter-cut with footage shot a few years ago in East London when I started shooting film again." - Mark Jenkin

I Saw the Face of God in the Jet Wash (2025)
“I love films that foreground the fact that you are watching film,” states British director Mark Jenkin, who in his film diary returns, among others, to the Cornwall locations which gave rise to his mesmeric Enys Men. The series of Super8 shots taken from his travels and the comprehensive voice-overs make for a fascinating mosaic of encounters, observations, formative quotations from cinematic and other works, and also possible fantasies. Here, Jenkin demonstrates his ability to give his films an appealing timeless quality and to connect the familiar with the curiously enigmatic. One hundred and one interesting facts from the filmmaker’s diary. (Viktor Palák)
