Christmas is one of the most special times of the year.
Family comes together, friends celebrate and neighbours commune, collectively giving the laudable ideals of peace and love a tangible, soul-stirring workout.
But what if you don’t have that special someone, that companion who turns a bright and beautiful time of the year into something even more wonderful?
That’s the central dilemma for the protagonist in Tag by Dan Edgley, who is quite literally made out of, it has to be said, very expressive red and green-wrapped presents, and who comes across a tag lying in the snow and sets off, hopefully and excitedly, in search of its owner.
What follows is heartwarming, sweet and very Christmassy short film that speaks in the simplest and yet most touching way of the festive season’s endless capacity to transform a life for the better.
