Sightseers

Dark comedy-drama. An innocent tour of Britain's countryside turns into a disturbing odyssey for two lovers, Alice Lowe and Steve Oram teamed up to write and star in this dark and violent comedy-drama, directed by Ben Wheatley. They look such an ordinary couple, but these Midlands' lovebirds prove anything but. Chris is the proud owner of an Abbey Oxford caravan and adores few things more than exploring the glories of the British countryside. So, he jumps at the opportunity to whisk his new girlfriend, Tina, off to see such heady sights as Keswick's Pencil Museum, Crich Tramway Village and the Ribblehead Viaduct. Though, to be honest, the sheltered Tina seems keener on the journey's erotic possibilities. But, almost as soon as their odyssey has begun, an awful accident completely changes the tenor of their trip. And, from then on, only the exceedingly unwise do anything to cross the increasingly malevolent pair… With Eileen Davies as Tina's oppressive mother. A Film4 production.
