About Carole’s Christmas:

It’s July. Carole, a middle-aged dance professor and mother of a rising college senior, finds out that she has four weeks to live. Rather than fight her diagnosis, Carole decides to celebrate Christmas. Carole refuses to succumb to sadness and instead searches for the light in her situation. In the end, the magic of Christmas prevails.
