A family's vacation to a remote island to witness a local tradition is greeted with intense hostility by the locals.
Richard (Nick Frost) and Susan (Aisling Bea) take their kids Sam (Sebastian Croft) and Jessie (Maisie Ayres) to a remote island in Sweden to witness an 8 hour play to commemorate a historic and bloody incident that happened 200 years ago. However, when they get close to the island, they encounter clear discouragement from locals and then outright hostility when they arrive. Will history repeat itself? Have they been invited to be part of the karantan, a ritual re-enactment of how the islanders threw off British oppression with bloody violence?

I didn’t hate it but wouldn’t recommend it to anyone.
I was very confused by the part where a character has a sword driven into one cheek and out the other cheek, knocking out a crown, but for the rest of the movie there didn’t seem to be any evidence of that wound???
