Set in the weeks leading up to Christmas, the narrative weaves together a tapestry of loosely interconnected love stories in London. Among them is the tale of the recently appointed, charmingly awkward Prime Minister who falls for a young member of his household staff. There's also the story of a writer who, betrayed by his girlfriend, seeks solace and inspiration in France where he encounters a new romantic possibility. Meanwhile, a graphic designer harbors secret affections for his best friend's new wife, grappling with his unrequited desires.

Parallel to these are the experiences of a widowed stepfather attempting to connect with his grieving stepson who is experiencing his first crush. An aging rock star aims for a comeback with a cheeky Christmas single, humorously aware of its lack of depth. Several other characters round out the ensemble, including a woman quietly in love with her co-worker, a married man tempted by his attractive secretary, and a pair of film stand-ins who find a unique connection in an awkward professional setting. Each story explores the different shades of love as the characters face their respective romantic trials and tribulations in the holiday season.
