“The Ballad of Wallis Island is a big-hearted, consoling hug of a movie. It might not reinvent the wheel, but it’s the low-(Tim)-key crowd-pleaser of the year so far.” Ian Freer, Empire Magazine.

Banish the January blues with this brilliant British comedy, that won critical acclaim, a certain crowd-pleaser and has a 96% Rotten Tomatoes approval rating!

The Ballad of Wallis Island is a witty, heart-warming adventure about a quirky island community where nothing and no one is quite what it seems. When a storm stirs up more than just waves, old secrets resurface, sparking chaos, romance and plenty of laughs. With sharp humour, touching moments and a cast of unforgettable characters, the film proves that even in isolation, connections thrive. The Ballad of Wallis Island is a joyful tale of love, mishaps and second chances. The film stars comedian Tim Key, Tom Basden (both co-wrote the script), and Oscar nominated actress, Carey Mulligan.
