A Fairytale Of New York is about starting again when you have a million reasons not to. It’s about broken dreams, broken hearts, a few broken bones and the redeeming powers of the unexpected.

In this story of boy meets girl, the boy is Conor, a middle-aged man and widowed father who has dedicated himself to keeping smiles on his children’s faces, at any cost.

The girl is, Eden, also in her forties, who has recently lost her husband. She’s lived long enough to know that true love only comes knocking once - if you’re lucky.

So when fate hurls the two of them onto a collision course, the question won’t be whether they will be foolish enough to open their hearts.

The question will be whether life has taught them enough tough lessons to know that more often than not, happiness requires you to take a leap - and trust that the net will appear.
