Christmas Tree: A Story in Five Parts

Synopsis:

A family takes part in the festivities and preparations for the holiday season. Throughout the holiday, a mysterious woman haunts the father's psyche, causing the son to view him in a different light. This, coupled with the mother's obsession over stray hairs and the daughter's concern with the asymmetry of her legs, begins to cause strife within the family as Christmas Day approaches.
