A crotchety teacher unsuspectingly bonds with grieving student and school chef

During the Christmas break at a New England prep school in the 1970s, a grumpy teacher stays on campus to look after a few students who have no other plans. As time passes, he unexpectedly connects with a troubled student who is mourning a loss and the school's chef, a mother who recently lost her son in the Vietnam War.
