　　康沃尔渔村的风景明信片田园诗误导了人们。虽然过去钓鱼是一种养家糊口的方式，但如今富有的伦敦游客纷纷下山，取代了当地人，当地人的生计因此受到威胁。史蒂文和马丁兄弟的关系也很紧张。马丁是一个没有船的渔夫，因为史蒂文开始用它来为一整天的游客提供更赚钱的旅游。他们卖掉了这座家庭别墅，现在看来，最后一场战斗是和新主人在海边的停车位上展开。然而，情况很快就失控了，而不仅仅是因为车轮夹钳。
　　Bait是一种黑白，手工制作，16毫米胶片制作的电影。许多关于鱼、网、龙虾、长靴、绳结和渔篮的特写镜头让人想起了蒙太奇景点的理论。对不同社会阶层的描述——可以说是阶级关系——也让人想起了英国电影中的社会现实主义传统。然而，最重要的是，在影像中不同层次的电影历史参考文献之下，当前许多政治关联正在等待被发现。
　　The picture-postcard idyll of the Cornwall fishing village is misleading. While fishing used to be a way of supporting oneself, wealthy London tourists have now descended and are displacing the locals, whose livelihood is thus threatened. The relationship between brothers Steven and Martin is also strained. Martin is a fisherman without a boat, since Steven started using it for far more lucrative tours for all the day-trippers. They’ve sold the family cottage and now it seems that the final battle to be fought is that with the new owners over the parking space next to the sea. Yet the situation soon gets out of hand, and not just because of the wheel clamp.
　　Bait is a black-and-white film shot on hand-processed 16mm. Numerous close-ups of fish, nets, lobsters, wellington boots, knots and catch baskets bring to mind the theory of a montage of attractions. The depiction of the different social strata – one could speak of class relations – is also reminiscent of the tradition of social realism in British cinema. Above all, however, a whole lot of current political relevance is waiting to be discovered beneath the different layers of film historical references contained in the images.

　　真相与幻想之间的界限是什么？感官是否能助我们认识世界？影片用一个摄影师的故事，铺开了一系列哲学、心理学的问号。
　　主角是摄影师托马斯(戴维·海明斯 David Hemmings饰)，某天他在公园里抓拍到年轻情侣的系列照片，出人意表的是，照片中的一个女子简(瓦妮莎·雷德格瑞夫 Vanessa Redgrave饰)竟然不惜一切代价要回她的底片。这让托马斯非常疑惑，他相信这张照片许是拍下了某些不可告人的秘密。果然，他把照片放大后，看到了一具尸体和一个拿着枪的人。
　　一桩谋杀案的雏形在托马斯脑中展开。他前往公园寻到了尸体，但没有人肯相信他的推测，朋友们不愿意和他一起调查这是怎么回事。第二天，当托马斯再次来到公园，发现尸体已经消失无踪。只剩下一群人进行着一场虚拟的网球赛，打着并不存在的的网球。

　　Jasmine, a young teenage girl on the run, is taken in by Shane, a showman who works on a travelling fairground passing through town. As an unorthodox bond between the pair builds, their combined quest to evade the past pushes both characters closer together, and in turn, closer to danger.
