The Christmas Clause
What if ...
Directed by George Erschbamer
A heartwarming holiday fantasy that uses a magical wish to explore the tension between ambition and motherhood, ultimately affirming the value of chosen family over career alone.
A stressed out lawyer and mother of three gets her yuletide wish when she wishes to see what her life would be like if she had chosen to pursue her career in Law rather than marrying and becoming a working mother.
