Starring the adorable Tim Key, Carey Mulligan and Fleabag's Sian Clifford, this charming British comedy combines laughs with deep emotion to pitch perfect effect.

The Ballad of Wallis Island follows Charles (Tim Key), an eccentric lottery winner who lives alone on a remote island and dreams of getting his favourite musicians, McGwyer Mortimer (Tom Basden and Carey Mulligan) back together.

His fantasy quickly turns into reality when the bandmates and former lovers accept his invitation to play a private show at his home on Wallis Island. As old tensions resurface, Charles tries desperately to salvage his dream gig.

"The Ballad of Wallis Island is not only deeply charming and laugh out loud funny for all its social foibles and comedy duo banter, but it's also cathartic." Mashable
