Sometimes, the greatest gifts come from unexpected places.
We all have a tale to share. For Mallory Blue, her grandmother Nan’s festive community theater and annual Christmas play has been a cherished tradition from her childhood. However, this year is unlike any other. With Nan succumbing to dementia and losing her memories, Mallory finds herself with a lot on her plate - including the responsibility of directing this year’s production.
Mallory finds solace in two things: an old journal detailing the stories behind each handmade ornament on Nan’s Christmas tree, and Hollis, who steps in as Santa Claus to spend time with Mallory and prove that he has grown from the rebellious boy she once knew.
As Mallory delves into Nan’s journal, she uncovers a wealth of information about her grandmother that she never knew. When faced with significant decisions in her personal and professional life, it is Nan’s insightful counsel and Hollis’s unwavering support that will unlock the true magic of this year’s holiday season.
