　　一个音乐剧版本的查尔斯·狄更斯的《圣诞颂歌》，一个吝啬的厌世者被带上了一个神奇的旅程。

暑假将至，十岁的格洛丽亚陪同身为护士的母亲安东尼娅去医院上班。格洛丽亚对医院早已熟悉，经常独自探索。有一天，她遇到了同样十岁的索菲亚。索菲亚来医院是因为她的祖母：比萨·弗朗西斯卡，一位患有阿尔茨海默症的精神治疗师，因家中发生意外而住院。索菲亚和母亲西蒙娜对比萨的下一步安排意见不一。西蒙娜坚持认为她应该暂时留在医院；索菲亚则渴望将祖母送回乡下的家中。格洛丽亚和索菲亚梦想着离开医院，而她们的母亲——都是单亲妈妈，则与她们建立了信任和相互支持的纽带。死亡与重生的循环对格洛丽亚、索菲亚、安东尼娅和西蒙娜来说意义深远。当比萨即将离世时，安东尼娅负责她的临终关怀。在乡下，他们发现一个社区正在等待比萨，准备为流浪的灵魂祈祷，以便他们能够继续前行。

　　Driving home late at night during a heavy rainstorm, Glen experiences car trouble. Near where his car gets stuck, he spots a house, knocks on the door and is greeted by an oddly friendly middle-aged man, Arthur, and his younger wife, Cyndi. The strange couple pours him a drink, and then more drinks, followed by an unexpected offer that Glen can’t refuse. Elsewhere, a young woman, Katie, is feeling emotionally weighed down by a secret romantic arrangement that feels like a textbook case of gaslighting. And at the same time, in a nondescript research facility, medical professional Julie begins questioning her role in a bizarre experiment, fearing that she’s doing more harm than good.
