Der Glaube an den Weihnachtsmann (2011)
Bei einem Streit mit ihrem Boss wirft die Kellnerin Casey (Martha MacIsaac) im Affekt einen Kaffeebecher an die Wand des Diners. Der Fleck, den die braune Brühe hinterlässt, ähnelt angeblich einem Abbild von Jesus Christus. Durch die Medien verbreitet sich die frohe Kunde des „Weihnachtswunders“ und das ehemalige verschlafene Restaurant wird zur Pilgerstätte Nummer eins. Von nah und fern reisen die Gläubigen an, um das durch ein Wunder entstandene Kaffeeportrait des Sohn Gottes mit eigenen Augen zu bewundern. Casey merkt schnell, wie viel Potential in dem Geschäft mit den fanatischen Pilgern steckt. Das verschlafene Dorf wird nicht nur zum Nabel der Welt, sondern spült auch ordentlich Geld in die Kassen der Anwohner. Doch der Spaß hört auf, als Caseys Vater Donald (Callum Keith Rennie) sich von dem christlichen Hype anstecken lässt.
Der Regisseur: George Mihalka
