As part of Midtown Detroit's annual Noel Night celebration, the Detroit Film Theatre will present Manual Cinema's take on Dickens’s holiday classic with an inventive shadow play adaptation, first performed in December 2020.

Aunt Trudy has been recruited to channel her late husband's famous holiday cheer by performing his annual puppet show over a Zoom call. As she becomes absorbed in her version of the story, it transforms into a stunning cinematic rendering of Dickens’s classic ghost story.
