1000 Miles From Christmas is a comedy that tells the story of Raúl (Tamar Novas), a thirty-something who has suffered all the misfortunes of his life during Christmas time. This is the reason why he really hates Christmas Carols, the Three Wise Men and everything that remotely smells of Christmas spirit. Every year he spends Christmas time on a far-away beach... but this year his boss has different plans for him: Raúl must attend a business trip to audit a "turrones de Valverde" factory, the most typical Christmas sweet in a town that lives for and loves Christmas. And if this was not enough for Raúl, he will have to share accommodation with local teacher Paula, whose dream is beating the world record of the largest real live nativity scene ever created. Will this Madrilian Grinch be able to overcome his worst nightmare? Read More Read Less

inta k this xmas movie is little less copy paste from others, although the unbelievable chain of events still persists.. Rated 3 out of 5 stars 12/10/23 Full Review John B It was a good Christmas movie overall as it had its funny moments, but also seemed to drag in other places, but the main characters were likable except for scrooge which changes as it goes on.
