Synopsis

Based on a true event, Silent Night is the heart-warming story of an ordinary family in extraordinary times: the Blitzkrieg.

A direct hit on their Anderson shelter leaves Wilf, Rose, Lily, Jack, and their tortoise Harold awaiting the call to St Peter and the Pearly Gates.

As the night darkens around them, old tensions and new revelations threaten to blast them apart forever.

But dawn rises on a family united and resolved: wherever they go, they will stay together.

St Peter, it seems, is in for a surprise - and he's not the only one...
