BFF26: Mother's Pride

Australian premiere

A poignant and heartfelt comedy from writer-director Nick Moorcraft (Fisherman’s Friends: One and All BFF22), Mother’s Pride is a quintessential British underdog story about family, second chances and community.

After years away chasing a music career that never lived up to its promise, Cal Harley (Jonno Davies, Better Man) returns to his small, countryside hometown with little to show for himself beyond fading memories and bruised pride. Arriving home to a family still grieving his mother’s death and their beloved family pub on the brink of closure, Cal is determined to right his wrongs and sets out to not only win the prestigious Great British Beer Award and save the business, but also win back his first-love Abi (Gabriella Wilde).

Mixing delightfully hilarious antics with feel-good charm, Mother’s Pride depicts a moving portrait of a man rediscovering purpose and connection, proving that sometimes healing can be found in the most unexpected places - over a perfect pint shared with the people who know you best.
