About a composer's life? An opera within an opera? "The Passion of Scrooge" blurs these lines between performance, documentary, and fiction, into a cinematic concert experience that's seasoned with magical reality.

Using neither period costumes, nor set pieces to reconstruct old England, the film invites you to experience "A Christmas Carol" with the imaginative possibilities of a radio play. And then, to meet those visions in your head, filmmaker H. Paul Moon's floating camera intimately captures musicians performing the score as characters themselves, in this ageless haunted redemption story about "us, every one." See less
