Because family conflicts at home escalate just before Christmas, four very different teenagers spend Christmas Eve in a psychiatric ward this year. Luckily for them, they have the unconventional doctor Dr. Wolff at their side, who sees the strengths in all four of them and trusts them more than they trust themselves. Together they experience a Christmas they will never forget - full of defiance and sadness, but also full of irony and surprises. With 4 KINGS, director Theresa von Eltz has created a charming and ironic Christmas movie that is a little different. "An incredibly touching, finely observed movie about 4 young people who are all lost in different ways. Not a feel-good Christmas movie, but one that makes you think and that you won't forget."
