An eccentric two time lottery winner played by Tim Key, who lives alone on a remote island tries to make his fantasies come true by getting his favourite musicians played by Tom Basden and Sian Clifford, to perform at his home.
Review: Roger Ebert 3 stars out of 4 “…written by the film’s stars: Basden and Key…The film bewitches you with its seemingly spontaneous humor, a cadre of original soulful folk tunes, and its adoration of the breathtaking surroundings.”
