The Ballad of Wallis Island

NEW RELEASE
Directed by James Griffiths (2025)
With Tom Basden, Tim Key, Carey Mulligan, Akemnji Ndifornyen, Sian Clifford

Charles (Tim Key), an eccentric lottery winner who lives alone on a remote island, dreams of getting his favorite musicians, Mortimer-McGwyer (Carey Mulligan and Tom Basden), back together. His fantasy quickly becomes real when the former bandmates—and former lovers—accept his invitation to play a private show at his home on Wallis Island, causing old tensions to resurface as Charles tries desperately to salvage his dream gig.
