About Happy Christmas
What do you do when you lose everything and have to start all over again? Ten-year-old Lucas, the middle child of a wealthy family, lives in an expensive neighborhood in a large house, equipped with every luxury. Everything changes completely when Lucas, while searching for his Sinterklaas surprise, finds a large box of unpaid bills. Father Maarten turns out to have enormous financial problems and the family loses everything. The family is evicted and, with the help of their cleaner Nina, finds shelter in an old office building among other new poor people. While father (Jeroen Spitzenberger) and mother (Hadewych Minis) have a hard time with themselves and each other, and big brother Thomas (15) and sister Emma (7) have a terrible time getting used to the new situation, Lucas tries to make the best of it with the highest goal: a Merry Christmas for the whole family.
Directed by Anna van der Heide, Happy Christmas leans on a strong ensemble — Jeroen Spitzenberger, Rohan Timmermans, Hadewych Minis — to carry a story that balances spectacle with character.
The series landed with audiences for its craft and performances, and remains one of the most talked-about kids titles of 2014.
