Synopsis
Angela's Christmas (2017) is an Irish animated short you can watch online on iFILM — a 30-minute holiday story built around one small girl's very literal act of kindness. On Christmas Eve, young Angela goes to church with her family and notices the baby Jesus in the nativity scene. It's cold. She does something about it.
Directed by Damien O'Connor and based on a story by Frank McCourt — the author behind Angela's Ashes — the film features voice work from Ruth Negga and Brían F. O'Byrne. It's the kind of Christmas special that works precisely because it doesn't try to do too much: a gentle Irish warmth, a child's uncomplicated moral logic, and a running time short enough to fit before bedtime. Stream Angela's Christmas (2017) online on iFILM.
