Synopsis

Loveable seven-year-old Olive dreams of winning a beauty pageant - and within her dysfunctional family, her dream is the one bright spot. Her fellow family members, all of whom harbour dark secrets or major issues, pile into a broken-down van and to drive across the USA to help Olive realise her goal. While never being less than incredibly funny, this big-hearted film also manages to prove that though the darkest times and in the most troubled situations, the bond of family remains one of life's greatest gifts.

What our educators say

"It really is a chance for us to open children's minds to the power of film not just as a vehicle for entertainment but also as a way in to understanding their own world and the worlds of people whose lives are very different."

- Marlon Perkins, Teacher, Whitstable and Seasalter Endowed CofE Junior School, Kent
