Sweet and Funny Trailer for Feel Good Nun Road Trip Movie HOLY DAYS
A great trailer has been released for the sweet road trip movie Holy Days, starring Judy Davis, Jacki Weaver, and Miriam Margolyes as the three remaining nuns who live in a church that developers are looking to knock down with the intention to build a seaside resort. Elijah Tamati plays the little boy that’s their neighbor, who often goes to them for comfort and friendship as he faces his own troubles.
The film is written and directed by Nathalie Boltt, making her feature directorial debut after many short films and one episode of Riverdale. The story is adapted from the novel of the same name written by Joy Cowley.
The synopsis reads: “From the team behind the Kiwi hit Uproar, Holy Days is a hilarious, heartwarming 1970s dramedy with a star-studded cast: Judy Davis, Miriam Margolyes, and Jacki Weaver.
“When young Brian discovers plans to close a convent of delightfully eccentric nuns, he sets off on a wild road trip across New Zealand to save them. Packed with laughs, quirky characters, and heart, this is a joyful adventure the young at heart will adore.”
This looks like such a sweet movie, great for the family after the holidays die down. Check out the trailer below, and watch Holy Days in New Zealand cinemas starting on February 26, 2026. Keep an eye out for the US release date.
