The Night Before

Adult holiday drama A departure from typical holiday fare, this adult novella tells the story of Joe Kelly, who is about to greet Christmas by sharing the best news he has had in years with his family, along with a gift that his wife has longed for since the day they were married. However, just as he's about to present his stunning surprises, his world is abruptly fractured and he makes a broken-hearted escape into the bleak winter night. As he wanders the snowbound streets, his path entwines with a mother and daughter cast rudely from their home and the reverend of a storefront church amidst a night of saving lost souls in the cold and dark. With funky charm and a simple, yet affirmative, message of hope, Joe finds Christmas morning finally dawn with his life transformed in the most fundamental way.
