Note:"A dysfunctional family's matriarch brings everyone together at Christmas after she learns she needs a bone marrow transplant from a blood relative in order to survive. That simple family reunion setup , however, can't begin to describe the unpredictable, emotionally volatile experience of this film, an inventive, magical drama that's equal parts merriment and melancholy. Unrequited childhood loves and blinding grudges, brutal outbursts and sudden slapstick, music movies, and poetry -- A Christmas tale ties it all together in a marvelously messy package" -- container
