An author of fiction (Til Schweiger) must deal with the emergence of his 8-year-old natural daughter (Emma Tiger Schweiger), the previously unknown product of a one-night indiscretion in Stockholm. Henry is an unsuccessful screenwriter, and just as unhappy going from one casual relationship to another. Out of the blue he gets a fantastic job offer to co-write the screenplay of a bestselling novel together with Katharina. She is not only the author of the novel, but Henry's ex-girlfriend and the love of his life. He now has a second chance and things couldn't get better when an 8-year-old girl, Magdalena, shows up at Henry's door and turns his life upside down. She's his daughter from a long-forgotten one night stand eight years ago and her mother Charlotte, who's attending a court hearing in the US, insists Henry takes care of Magdalena until she returns. Henry is shocked, and so is Tristan, who thought for eight years that he was Magdalena's biological father. Life will never be the same for any of them.

Nine-year-old Taylor McTuttle has reached a crossroads. Does he believe Santa Claus really knows who is naughty or nice? Does he even believe in Santa Claus anymore? An Elf's Story is the inspirational tale of Chippey, the young scout elf who is assigned by Santa to restore Taylor's belief in Christmas magic. When the boy breaks the number one Elf on the Shelf rule, Chippey loses his Christmas magic; the entire McTuttle family loses its scout elf, and both Taylor and Chippey lose their self-respect. Through the power of love and forgiveness, both of them learn the most important lesson of all: that true belief cannot be taught. A family holiday classic for generations to come.

The Greatest Game Ever Played (2005)
Drama | History | Sport
Francis Ouimet was a working-class immigrant kid who–flanked by a 10-year-old caddie smaller than his golf bag–started with nothing and came out of nowhere to break down the barriers and become America's first golf hero nearly a century before Tiger Woods. In a world where it was believed only the wealthy and privileged could play, and win, at golf, it took an outsider to change the rules forever and prove that anyone with enough courage, grit and faith could achieve greatness. It all came to a head at the 1913 U.S. Open. Suddenly, Francis found himself in an ultimate showdown of skill and spirit–he, the unknown upstart American, facing off against Harry Vardon, a U.S. Open winner and six- time British Open champion (a record that still stands today) who was the sport's undisputed champion. One was a towering idol, the other an impossible underdog–and their legendary battle would transcend sport to become an illustration of human determination at its best.
