Vincent Lannoo’s ‘mockumentary’ shows us a community of vampires in Belgium. The two ‘parents’ of the family are George and Bertha, who have two teenage children – or rather, they raise two former humans who they turned into vampires. Son Samson is a bit of a jack the lad: enjoying the sexual freedom of vampire life, with all the vigour of an irresponsible young adult regardless of consequences (even incest is not frowned upon in their world, where the word ‘wife’ is often synonymous with ‘mother’ or ‘sister’). Daughter Grace yearns for humanity in a different way: applying fake tan to get rid of her vampiric pallor, dressing in pink clothes, wishing she could feel emotion and even having a human boyfriend.
An old man and a young boy discuss whether or not Christmas has changed. The old man takes the young boy back to the Christmas' of his youth, and teases him with a mysterious assertion concerning snow.
The old-age pensioners of a South Wales town are up in arms. They must fight to save their municipal hall from developers and corrupt councilors. Unexpectedly they are joined by their teenage neighbors whose life of unemployment makes them ready to flight for their valley and their heritage. Together they plan to mobilize public opinion by seeking sponsors, running bazaars and offering super prizes at the local bingo hall. But one suggestion beats everything: 'I propose that Tom Jones comes here to sing.'
