This film screened 29th & 31st August 2018.

Road trips have featured in many films, but few will be as ramshackle, hilarious and excruciating as this one featuring thirteen members of a family crammed into a creaking camper van travelling to a village wedding, 1,000 miles from Buenos Aires. The 84-year-old grandmother expects her family to travel with her, but nothing can prepare her for the scenes of jealousy, unfolding secrets and downright chaos that unfold as they trundle across the country.
