Summary |
George and his father are about to spend their third Christmas without George's mother. Since she died, Hugo Bishop has thrown himself into his work, and has no time for George - and he definitely has no time for Christmas. It feels like they're living life in black and white. Then, George stumbles across Marley's Curiosity Shop. There he finds a mysterious snow globe, which - though George can't quite understand how - appears to show a scene from George's past. A Christmas in which he and his family were together, and happy... That night, George and his father are swept on an adventure to three Christmases - past, present, and future. With a little bit of hope, and just a touch of magic, can they begin living life in full colour again? A stunning modern reimagining of Charles Dickens' beloved classic, A Christmas Carol. |
