The synopsis reads \u201cExpecting dull days and strict rules, the boy instead stumbles into a world of delightful chaos and imagination \u2014 where outrageous stories are spun, and a world of wonder, memory, and mischief unfolds. What begins as a reluctant visit becomes a magical journey of connection, discovery, and unexpected joy.\u201d\u00a0<\/p>\n<p class=\"paragraph larva \/\/ lrv-u-margin-lr-auto     \">\n\tThe film is produced by Welsh producer Huw Penallt Jones with Hannah Leader (Mary) and Amory Leader (Christmas Karma).
