A heartwarming true story about Peter, who decides to help himself by helping the homeless. A film with an original premise and an inspiring Christmas message.
Peter is a workaholic whose fiancée leaves him. The upheavals in his personal life lead him to decide to devote his time to those who have nowhere to live.
Gradually, he comes up with the idea of organizing a choir with a group of homeless people, which will allow them to earn some extra money and find something meaningful that will help them move forward in life.
The reality, however, is much more complicated than he initially thought. Bureaucracy and the health issues faced by the homeless mean that the entire project hangs by a thread at every turn.
After some initial setbacks, it seems the choir will manage to gain a foothold and achieve its first successes. Through this amazing project, Peter also finds a blessing in his personal life.
