In this funny and scathing Christmas comedy, we meet Frank Cross, a ruthless and cynical television producer who has left his Christmas spirit behind in pursuit of success and power. As Christmas Eve approaches, Frank, more focused on launching an extravagant broadcast than on Christmas itself, is forced to confront his own ghosts from the past. That night, after a day characterized by stress and greed, he is visited by the ghost of his former boss, who warns him that his selfish behavior will lead him to bitter loneliness.
Throughout the night, Frank is visited by three Christmas spirits: the spirit of the past, the spirit of the present, and the spirit of the future. Each one shows him glimpses of his life, revealing how his obsession with work has distanced him from the things that truly matter. From his young and dreamy self to the cold shadow of his future, Frank's encounters compel him to rethink his values and his relationship with the world around him.
With a star-studded cast that includes Bill Murray, Karen Allen, and a myriad of hilarious cameos, this film combines laughs, romance, and a touch of Christmas magic. As the story unfolds, Frank's heart begins to change, confronting him with the possibility of redemption and the joy that Christmas can bring if one is willing to embrace it.
