Joyeux Noël (2005) is a moving, multilingual World War I drama that recreates the extraordinary true story of the unofficial Christmas truce of 1914. Through the intertwined experiences of French, Scottish, and German soldiers, the film explores how humanity briefly triumphed over conflict as enemies laid down their weapons to share songs, stories, and a moment of peace. It’s a heartfelt reminder of the power of empathy—and the fragility of such moments in wartime.Film Info:Director/Writer :Christian CarionStarring: Diane Kruger, Natalie Dessay &amp; Benno FurmannGenre: Drama/ History/WarFrance 2005 Cert 12A116mins Before the main movie, we’ve got a short film to kick things off.The InnkeeperWhen a spirited eight-year-old lands the part of Innkeeper in the school nativity play, she battles her perfectionist teacher who insists that she “stick to the script” and refuse Mary and Joseph a room.Director: Padraig Baggott Writer: Denise Deegan Stars: Portia McLaughlin, Clare Monnelly, Rhea Rose Rodillas.
