Overview

Synopsis

Luther is a famous artist who has shunned the big money to work for the local community in Marfa, Texas. He is approached by Craig, a cookie magnate, who wants to feature as the Angel in his new Christmas installation. Craig has separated from his wife after he neglected her while building his business empire. The pair argue over what you will see when you tune into the live nativity stream on celebratemarfa.org. Craig knows his wife will be watching, and he wants to prove his love by appearing as the angel and surprising her. When Luther finds out that Craig is the man behind a famous cookie brand, the two men come to a compromise about getting Craig on camera.
