A teenage boy and his mum rediscover the joy of spending quality time together at Christmas in a heartwarming film released by the BBC.
The short film, Wonderland, was created by BBC One by BBC Creative, the BBC’s in-house creative agency based in Salford.
It follows the story of a teenage boy who lives with his family in a small seaside town. The demands of everyday life mean that he and his mum don’t get to spend as much time together as they used to. But one day, with Christmas fast approaching, everything changes and they get to spend a unique afternoon together that they’ll never forget.
Creatives on the film were Edward Usher and Xander Hart working in to Executive Creative Director Laurent Simon and Director of BBC Creative, Justin Bairamian. The film was directed by Sam Brown through Rogue Films. Cast was chosen from the length and breadth of the UK, and the film was largely shot on location in Cromer, North Norfolk.
