The Ballad Of Wallis Island charts the story of an eccentric lottery winner, Charles, who lives alone on a remote island but attempts to turn his dreams into reality by hiring his favourite musician, Herb McGwyer, to play an exclusive, private gig.

Unbeknownst to Herb, Charles has also hired Herb's ex-band mate and ex-girlfriend, Nell, with her new husband in tow, to perform the old favourites. As tempers flare and old tensions resurface, the stormy weather traps them all on the island and Charles desperately looks for a way to salvage his dream gig.

Based on the 2007 short The One and Only Herb McGwyer Plays Wallis Island, the film is directed by James Griffiths from a screenplay by Basden and Key.
