Synopsis by Stephen Thomas Erlewine

Home for Christmas is a made-for-television film about a young girl who wants a grandfather for Christmas. She chooses an elderly, homeless ex-con (Mickey Rooney) as her pseudo-grandfather and he teaches her and her family--as well as his long-estranged son--the true meaning of Christmas.
