Exploring heartbreak, family and how to survive them.

Two weeks before Christmas, Noel is left home alone in Porthcawl, a sleepy seaside town in South Wales, and dumped by his long term girlfriend for another guy; a taller and more rugged alternative. Faced with the unknown, he turns to primal scream therapy with his self-taught therapist Simon and retreats to the past, reminiscing with his old school pal Steve. A chance encounter with Cherie, a disillusioned actress who has returned home to reflect on her past and present to begin a more fulfilled life, leads Noel to open up and share his passions. Their shared love of music, eighties movies, and all things Christmas encourages a celebratory spirit, and the possibility of a Happy New Year. Will the insecurities of recent break­ups, seasonal intoxication, and mis­communication conspire to ruin their fun or will they simply have a Wonderful Christmas Time?
