On Chirstmas Eve, four lives collide by chance, tragedy and divine intervention. A suicidal ex-priest (Forest Whitaker), a young stripper (Jessica Biel) with a terminally ill son, a lonely mortician looking for love and an elderly ex-con (Ray Liotta) desperate to reunite with his daughter create a mosaic of characters seeking solace and redemption as their lives become inexorably intertwined. By Christmas morning, under a powder blue snowfall, they each find that love, courage and truth are often found where it seems all hope is lost.
