As he slowly spirals into despair, he comes to the aid of a mysterious young woman in the park. Her warming presence, matched with some colorful customers, help rescue him from self-destruction.

"A low-key mixture of American indie tropes and Christmas chestnuts." - Boyd van Hoeij, The Hollywood Reporter
