| It’s Christmas Day, sort of, and Alice, Mike and Tess – three generation of the one family – are busy preparing a feast, singing songs, spinning yarns and squabbling about snacks… like only a close family can. But someone is missing from the table. Telling their stories in turns, and breaking off for the odd musical interlude, the family pass the time waiting for Tess’s mum to arrive. As they do, we see a picture of how one family forms its traditions – and how those traditions matter most when there are problems on the horizon. |
