Pусский
В центре картины находится подросток Лэнгстон, воспитанный своей матерью-одиночкой, из-за чего жизнь Лэнгстона никогда не казалась сладкой и очаровательной. Вскоре Лэнгстон соберется в Нью-Йорк, ведь именно в этом чудесном городе подростку предстоит встретить Рождество, а также навестить своих родственников, представленных преподобным отцом Корнеллом и его женой Аретой. Однако Лэнгстона сразу поставили перед фактом, что ему запрещено нарушать традиции в семье его родственников, с чем попросту не согласен подросток. И теперь Лэнгстон решает отправиться обратно к своей матери, чтобы вместе с ней и встретить столь замечательный праздник. Но путь у подростка будет невероятно увлекательным…

Nederlands
Langston (Jacob Latimore) is een tiener uit Baltimore, opgevoed door zijn alleenstaande moeder, die met de kerstvakantie afreist naar New York City. Daar brengt hij dagen door met zijn van hem vervreemde familieleden dominee Cornell en Aretha Cobbs (Forest Whitaker en Angela Bassett). Langston is al snel klaar met de strenge gedwongen regels van dominee Cornell en hij wenst dan ook om terug te keren naar huis, naar zijn moeder Naima (Jennifer Hudson). Op een inspirerende reis komt Langston in aanraking met nieuwe vrienden, een beetje goddelijke interventie en ontdekt hij de ware betekenis van geloof, genezing en het hebben van een familie

Español

Dansk
Naima er enlig mor og kæmper for at få økonomien til at hænge sammen. Hun beder derfor hans bedsteforældre i New York, pastor Cornell og Aretha Cobbs, om at tage sig af teenagesønnen Langston. I første omgang er han langt fra begejstret for de stramme tøjler, men med hjælp fra nye venner - og lidt guddommelig indgriben - begiver han sig ud på en inspirerende rejse, der samler hele familien.

Deutsch
Langston (Jacob Latimore) ist ein rebellischer Teenager, der bei seiner alleinerziehenden Mutter Naima (Jennifer Hudson) wohnt. Naima hat jedoch Probleme mit dieser großen Verantwortung und entscheidet sich, Langston an Weihnachten zu seinen Verwandten nach New York zu schicken, damit ihr mehr Zeit für sich bleibt. Reverend Cornell (Forest Whitaker) und Aretha Cobbs (Angela Bassett) empfangen Langston mit offenen Armen – doch der Teenager hat schnell Probleme mit Cornells Glaubenspraxis. Der Pastor verlangt etwa, dass jeder, der unter seinem Dach wohnt, zu seinen Predigten kommt und an den Tischgebeten teilnimmt. Irgendwann wird Langston klar, dass er Weihnachten nicht ohne seine Mutter verbringen möchte – also bricht er auf, um sie zu suchen. Auf dieser Reise findet er nicht nur zu sich selbst, sondern entdeckt auch die wahre Bedeutung von Glaube und Familie.

Český
V současné adaptaci slavné hry Langstona Hughese se dospívající chlapec Langston vydává na vánoční prázdniny do New Yorku, kam ho poslala jeho matka. Svátky má strávit daleko od Baltimoru se vzdálenými příbuznými - s reverendem Conellem Cobbsem a jeho ženou Arethou. Langston nemyslí na nic jiného než na to, jak se vrátit zpátky domů. Díky novým přátelům a malému zásahu shůry však objeví skutečný význam rodiny, víry a odpuštění.

Magyar
A tini Langston apa nélkül nőtt fel, a baltimore-i utcákon nevelkedett. Az anyja New Yorkba küldi a fiút, hogy az elhidegült rokonaival, Cornell tiszteletessel és Arethával töltse a karácsonyi vakációt. Ám Langston nem hajlandó a tiszteletes által megkövetelt szabályokat betartani, elhelyett elhatározza, hogy hazatér. Kalandos utazás veszi kezdetét, melynek során nemcsak új barátokra tesz szert, de felfedezi a valódi értelmét a hitnek, a megbocsátásnak és a családnak.
