Aimed squarely at anyone who values honest, human stories and anyone looking for a holiday tradition. It deals with hard things honestly. Made to be watched with the tree lit.
The mood
Thoughtful and character-driven.

Lets scenes breathe, at 1 hr 30 min. An easy one to fit in on a school night.
What might put you off
Skip it if you need something light and fast tonight.
