Ebenezer Scrooge is an old and selfish man who derides the whole idea of Christmas. He is visited by the ghost of his deceased partner, Jacob Marley, who warns him that he has been granted one last chance to change his miserly and selfish life and recover from his past errors. The Spirit of Christmas will appear to him in three forms - the Past, the Present and the Future. It shows Scrooge events from his past and the miserable life of his employee Cratchit, whose son dies in poverty. Scrooge is also forced to confront his very own gravestone. Moved by what the Spirit has shown to him, Scrooge swears he will now honour the spirit of Christmas throughout the year. When dawn comes, he wakens euphorically and joins his nephew and family to celebrate.
