In this adaptation of a Charles Dickens Christmas story, Pericles Redlaw is a man dominated by memories of his life’s disappointments and tragedies. One night he is visited by a spirit who offers him “the forgetting of all the sorrow, wrong and trouble you have known.” He will also spread that gift to others, but he soon finds that the “gift” is ruining their lives. The damage he caused is reversed, and Redlaw’s memory restored, by a character “saturated in the teaching of pure love,” who helps him realize that without the memory of past wrongs, we cannot forgive them.
