CHRISTMAS CAROLE
synopsis
It’s Christmas! Small-town mayoress Carole helps the inhabitants of her municipality with the festivities while her devoted husband Alain organises the Christ- mas Eve celebrations at home. The kids arrive, and soon all hopes of a peaceful Christmas melt away as the family traditions are challenged. Wine is okay but only if it’s natural, Christmas decorations must remain unlit and no more foie gras for Alain... On earth as well as around the table, climate is warming up while everybody’s waiting for the big news that the eldest daughter is supposed to announce.
