A heartwarming film screening at St Swithun's Church in Long Bennington.
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, Mortimer-McGwyer (Carey Mulligan and Tom Basden) 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. Old tensions resurface as Charles tries desperately to salvage his dream gig.
Bring a cushion or blanket to get comfy for the evening. Refreshments will be available to purchase both cash and card are accepted. Income from ticket sales and refreshments will be going to support the church.
