Molly is looking forward to her daughter's family coming over for Christmas, but they call and say they can't make it and instead ask her to come to them. This turns everything upside down for Molly, who holds even tighter to Christmas traditions after becoming a widow. However, she goes to her daughter's home, where she soon becomes involved in the town's Christmas play. In the play, Hank participates, gradually helping Molly break out of the life that had stagnated after her husband's death.
The movie is a bit unusual as the main characters are 60+, which feels refreshing. It is also well-executed.
