Winter Solstice is the opener of a two-part series that focuses on the fate and love lives of a group of women in England who are bonded by family ties. From one generation to another they search for happiness and overcome life’s obstacles together.
Elfrida (Sinéad Cusack) tries to help out her neighbour (Jan Niklas) who just lost his family, while looking after heart-broken niece Carrie (Sophie Schütt) and her little sister Lucy (Anna Maguire). Christmas will bring some unwanted turbulence into the lives of these ladies and their chosen gentlemen as some uninvited and unwelcome guests interfere with their happiness. —TMG.de
