Dear Marianne
A Cornishman visiting the Irish coast sends postcards home in Mark Jenkin’s short travelogue.
Director: Mark Jenkin
Overview
“I was hungry for the coast again and took a bus down along the R675, getting off to walk a while between Annestown and Dungarvan. The cliffs are imperious here and look just like home…” Mark Jenkin’s nostalgic travelogue, shot on Super 8, is narrated in the form of postcards sent from a Cornishman visiting the Irish coast.
