Retired to the countryside after a career as an actress, Elfrida befriends the Blundells. When a terrible tragedy strikes the family, she naturally offers her support to Oscar and accompanies him to Scotland.

Meanwhile, Sam, after a failed marriage, accepts a post in that same remote region of Sutherland in an attempt to rebuild his life. Elfrida's niece, Carrie, and her daughter will also seek refuge there. All these people from different backgrounds will find themselves brought together by happy circumstances for a Christmas full of surprises.
