A Christmas Carol

In Victorian-era London, Ebenezer Scrooge, a greedy, penny-pinching, and lonely moneylender, refuses to partake in the merriment of Christmas. On Christmas Eve, he declines his cheerful nephew Fred's invitation to the annual Christmas dinner party and dismisses two gentlemen who are collecting money for charity. His loyal employee Bob Cratchit requests to not work on Christmas Day so he can spend time with his family, to which Scrooge reluctantly agrees.
