About A Christmas Hero
When a young war vet returns home from Afghanistan, he struggles to find joy in the life he once knew. As he comes close to giving up all hope, his guardian angel pays a visit to show him there’s more meaning to his life than he’s ever known.
Directed by Phil Wurtzel, A Christmas Hero leans on a strong ensemble — Michael Welch, Kayla Kelly, Lauren Rys Martin — to carry a story that balances spectacle with character.
The film landed with audiences for its craft and performances, and remains one of the most talked-about family titles of 2020.
