Full Plot Details

In the approach to Christmas 1938, much is happening in the lives of the Bailey and Sutton families of New Bedford. Grace Mainwairing and her mother - the Bailey family matriarch, May Bailey - are in Europe collecting the remains of Grace's husband, Van, who was killed in the war in Spain. Hub Bailey is in the seminary at the University of Toronto. Back in New Bedford, Hub's mother, Honey Sutton, is following in her son's footsteps and is also a University of Toronto student. She is taking courses by correspondence although she would rather take classes in person in Toronto. Honey's husband, Max, has to take over many of the household duties because of Honey's busy schedule, this in addition to his regular work as the school's principal and the town mayor. This leaves no time for his passion, writing. Even this year's Christmas pageant, which is being directed by May's daughter-in-law, Toppy Bailey, was written by science teacher, Jim Flett. Jim's lack of play writing skills is evident. Hub's brother, Fat, also has a career in mind, that of a RCMP officer. He wants to leave high school to enter the force. Even without Hub present, Fat is feeling like he is living in the shadow of his older "perfect" brother. And Maisey McGinty has more immediate thoughts: boys, specifically Hub, despite Hub studying to be a Catholic priest. But Hub may be reconsidering his stated vocation when he meets Austrian exchange student, Anna Schiller, a cellist in the music program. Hub and Anna met in an anti-fascist political group on campus. Because of a secret Anna is keeping, Hub decides to bring her to New Bedford for the Christmas holidays. Both Maisey and Honey don't much like what Anna symbolizes in Hub's life, for Maisey a rival, and for Honey someone who is taking him away from his vocation. In addition, RCMP Inspector Wells is after Anna, which places a wedge between brothers Hub and Fat, the aspiring RCMP officer. By Christmas Day, the future lives of all involved are much clearer.

Movie Reviews

User Review - 10/10 by Martin PGreat family series about dealing with troubled times. The story does tend to wander a little bit between all the characters but all together a 10/10!
User Review - 10/10 by Erin LWhat can I say, it's Wind at my Back.
User Review - 4/10 by Jennifer BGood for a preteen, but otherwise the acting is not that great and the dialogue and music are far too cheesy to be real.
