A Manhattan apartment, 1962, two nights before Christmas.... Jeff Greenaway, age 11, discovers that he may actually be an orphan. He quickly resolves to run away from home - and from the two phonies pretending to be his parents - to the idyllic Vermont town of Drakesburg, which he has only just learned about from watching an episode of The Twilight Zone on TV. A masterpiece of comedy and pathos.
