Result: no children, no grandchildren... While Beatrice is looking forward to this intimate evening, he is overwhelmed and can't imagine a Christmas together. So he decides to go to a retirement home to invite a lonely resident to join them and share the Christmas spirit. Monique, 85 years old and obsessed with death, arrives... soon followed by Jeanne, a former prison guard with no filter. For all four of them, this December 24th promises to be as explosive as it is unexpected!
Editor's Verdict
"The movie is fundamentally built around the concept of sharing the Christmas spirit when plans fall through. The entire conflict and resolution stem from the main character's desire to ensure Christmas Day happens for him, driven by his love for the holiday. This places Christmas at the core of the setting, plot, and themes."
