A darkly comedic, genre-defying satire that uses a couple's caravan holiday as the frame for escalating violence and murder, balancing genuine affection with anarchic irreverence.

Chris wants to show girlfriend Tina his world, but events soon conspire against the couple and their dream caravan holiday takes a very wrong turn.
