The Christmas Choir (2008) Inspired by a true story
From imdb |
Thankfully, I enjoyed the film. I've seen many movies of the same theme, but these things happen in real life, with different twists.
Much later I learned that this was inspired by true events. Besides changing the names of the characters, the profession and other factors were changed too. Yes. They fictionalized it for cinematic purposes.
What I can tell you right now is that it won't be a waste of your time to watch this.
Thanks for your time.
