The half hour CG film is based on Frank McCourt's only children's book, inspired by a story his mother Angela told him as a child. McCourt won the Pulitzer Prize for his best-selling memoir, Angela's Ashes. Set in Ireland in the 1910s, 'Angela's Christmas' is a funny, heart-warming and poignant story about the power of family and the innocent desire of a child to ensure everyone is safe, warm and loved at Christmas time.
Simple but beautiful, this heartwarming tale is great and doesn't last more than 30 min. Totally recommendable.
