Join Scannappeal for a delightful Sunday afternoon viewing a heart-warming British gem, The Ballard of Wallis Island which follows lottery winner Charles Heath (Tim Key), who invites his favourite folk duo, Herb McGwyer and Nell Mortimer (Tom Basden & Carey Mulligan), to perform a private concert on a remote Welsh island. When Nell arrives, old wounds resurface exploring themes of love, regret, and healing. Set against the wild beauty of a windswept island, the film blends whimsy with emotional depth, carried by standout performances from Mulligan, Key and Basden.
Don’t miss this soul-stirring triumph of British cinema. Critics are raving:
“A funny yet poignant film…” — The Guardian
“Quietly life-affirming” — Empire
“A beautifully observed charmer of a comedy about loving and letting go” — Time Out.
“The Ballad of Wallis Island is the best kind of crowd-pleaser: disarming, joyful and full of compassion for its oddball characters. This Sundance charmer doesn’t hit a false note.” – Variety Magazine
