A heartwarming family comedy about a resourceful child orchestrating a Christmas-in-August reunion to save her parents' marriage, grounded in warmth, hope, and the redemptive power of togetherness.
An American couple bring their 10 year old daughter, Claire, to her grandfather Lawrence's hotel in The Dolomites, Italy. They usually come for Christmas but this year it’s August. The fact is they are breaking up, and once Claire realizes there’s not going to be a family Christmas this year, she insists on everyone making it out for Christmas in August.
