A teenage boy struggles with loss and betrayal within the confines of a small town.

Set in 1970s rural Devon, 'Christmas, 1978' is a short film that delves into the nuanced relationship between a father and son within a heavily catholic working-class community in the week leading up to Christmas Day. As Jon's traditional catholic values clash with his son's new metropolitan lifestyle, the film becomes an exploration of the paradox of Catholicism and Homosexuality.
