In this gripping tale, meet Alex, Fedja, Timo, and Lara—four troubled teenagers whose Christmas eve is far from a serene celebration. Plagued by turbulent family histories and escalating conflicts, they find themselves spending the holidays not at home but in a psychiatric ward. Forced to confront not only each other but also their own inner struggles during intensive therapy sessions, these vastly different adolescents embark on a challenging journey of self-discovery. With the unconventional guidance of Dr. Wolf, a maverick psychiatrist, the therapy sessions take an unforeseen turn, leading the four on a memorable Christmas adventure that will leave an indelible mark on their lives.
