Left at home with only a babysitter on the most magical night of the year, young Theo feels an overwhelming sense of loneliness. Staring out the window into the crisp winter sky, he spots a brilliant shooting star and makes a single, desperate wish: he just wants some friends to keep him company. Almost instantly, the quiet house bursts into astonishing life as the ornaments on his Christmas tree begin to untangle themselves from the pine branches. You will watch in wonder as Theo is joined by an ever-hungry rocking horse, a fragile angel losing her feathers, a little robin who has forgotten its song, and a rusting tin drummer boy. Together, this unlikely band of misfits creates a whirlwind of joyous havoc and heartfelt connection. It is a stunningly crafted holiday tale that captures the true magic of the season, reminding us all to treasure the friendships that bring light into our darkest evenings.
