Lightbulb Film Distribution is excited to announce that new comedy, HOLY DAYS, will be coming into UK & Irish cinemas from August 14.
HOLY DAYS has already captured the hearts of international audiences and critics alike, with Film Threat calling it “the definitive feel-good movie of 2026…”. The film is led by a stellar cast featuring screen legends Judy Davis (The Dressmaker, Barton Fink), Miriam Margolyes (Harry Potter, The Age of Innocence), and Jacki Weaver (Animal Kingdom, Silver Linings Playbook).
Packed with warmth, wit, and a wonderfully eccentric sense of humour, HOLY DAYS is a heartfelt celebration of resilience, community, and the families we create along the way. Beneath its laughs and road-trip antics lies a touching story about belonging, hope, and finding purpose when life takes an unexpected turn.
A young boy finds refuge with three delightfully eccentric elderly nuns at a run-down convent facing shutdown. A road trip like no other, HOLY DAYS is a joyful comedy packed with heart, humour, and high-speed hijinks. It’s a story about letting go, holding on, and finding home in the most unexpected places.
Speaking on the upcoming release, Peter Thompson, Sales & Acquisitions Director at Lightbulb Film Distribution said “We are thrilled to be bringing HOLY DAYS to UK & Irish audiences. Adapted from Joy Cowley’s novel, the film is a heartfelt, feel-good adventure. Miriam Margolyes is hilarious and it’s a film that the whole family will enjoy.“.
