A warm, reflective family drama about grief, memory and the complicated bonds between sisters.

For her directorial debut, Kristin Scott Thomas draws on personal experience to tell the story of three sisters reuniting in the English countryside for their mother’s third wedding. As Diana (Scott Thomas) prepares to marry again, daughters Katherine (Scarlett Johansson), Victoria (Sienna Miller) and Georgina (Emily Beecham) are forced to confront old family wounds, lingering memories of their late fathers and the uneasy feeling that life is continuing to move forward without them fully ready.

Set largely within a cosy countryside home, the film balances gentle humour with more emotional conversations about loss, identity and family expectations. The wedding itself becomes less about romance and more about the shifting relationships between the women gathered around it, each carrying very different ideas about love, loyalty and the past.

The performances give the film much of its warmth, with Johansson, Miller and Beecham creating a believable sibling dynamic filled with affection, irritation and shared history. Johansson in particular brings a grounded emotional steadiness that quietly anchors the ensemble.

Bittersweet and heartfelt, it’s an intimate drama that finds comfort in connection, even amid unresolved feelings
