THE BALLAD OF WALLIS ISLAND

"Would you like to hear a story about a man who's tired of life?"
An eccentric lottery winner who lives alone on a remote island tries to make his fantasies come true by getting his favorite musicians to perform at his home.(IMDb) Described in The Guardian by Catherine Bray as "a funny but also melancholy piece of work" - she says it will leave you "wanting your own island, your own gig..." And Harry Guerin of RTÉ has this to say: "The performances are brilliant; it has the best of British humour mixed with lovely songs, and it also says a lot about making sense of the world and ourselves. As for the ending, well, just you wait..." and "...an uplifting cinema experience".
