What We Did on Our Holiday

• Comedy

A deceptively simple family vacation to the Scottish Highlands unravels into a hilariously awkward attempt to conceal a recent separation from a stubbornly traditional father. The film distinguishes itself not through grand comedic set-pieces, but through the refreshingly honest and unfiltered perspectives of three children, navigating their parents’ evolving relationship with a charming mix of curiosity and pragmatism. This is a comedy rooted in the quiet anxieties of a fracturing family and the poignant attempt to maintain appearances, blossoming into a surprisingly tender exploration of acceptance and the enduring bonds within a family despite change. The stunning Scottish landscape serves as a backdrop to a realistically chaotic and ultimately heartwarming portrayal of modern family life.
