 Since the film was shot on a wind up Bolex, sound couldn't be recorded on set. All the dialogue was then dubbed in post.


Director Mark Jenkin processed the 130 rolls of Kodak 16mm B&W film 16mm film himself in his studio.

Much of the film was shot in the Admiral Benbow, Penzance. This pub, opened in 1959, houses thousands of artefacts salvaged from ships wrecked of the Cornish coast and the Isles of Sicily.

Printed Film Format  is D cinema. 
"The wind on my Bolex allows for 27 seconds of shooting time, so no single
take is ever longer than that," he says. "Although in practice we actually 
lit pretty much everything - the exterior and interiors scenes 
with LEDs to subtly lift the look as appropriate,
I wanted the result to look as natural as possible."

Once the film development was concluded, the rolls were shipped to 
Kodak Film Lab, at Pinewood Studios, for a 2K 
DPX scan and a one -light technical-grade. The entire footage was then returned 
o the director for editorial, post-synching of the audio and
addition of music and sound effects, and final grading
