Happy Christmas - Chris Jenkin, film maker from Newlyn



Happy Christmas demonstrates an intensely personal exploration of familial relationships and our subliminal connection with landscape, through an expressionistic portrayal of time.

Taking place over Christmas Eve, this subtly compelling drama follows various members of a disparate family as they come together for an overdue festive reunion.

Happy Christmas is set in West Cornwall around the small coastal market town of Penzance, featuring the stunning wintry backdrop of Mount's Bay, an enduring landscape of misty marram grass covered dunes stretching into the ocean and the evocative Mousehole Harbour Lights the locations are integral to the portrayal of each character's emotional journey.
