ABOUT THE MOVIE
The movie is inspired by a true story, which happened on Christmas Eve 1914 during World War 1, in many different places along the frontline.

That night, a momentous event will turn the destinies of four characters: A Scottish priest, a French lieutenant, an exceptional German tenor and the one he loves and sings with, a wonderful Danish Soprano. They will find themselves at the heart of unprecedented fraternisations between German, British and French troops.

Rifles will be left at the bottom of trenches and steps will be taken towards those opposite, to shake their hands, exchange a cigarette or a piece of chocolate, to wish them Merry Christmas...
