Evergreen Story (2020)

The Radar read

A quieter title still finding its audience, though the rating rests on a thin sample, so treat it as provisional.

Synopsis

Eco Father Frost is a good family man and guardian of nature who wakes up in the morning at his ancestral estate. His beloved family sees him off to the city. He takes with him cedar seedlings from his nursery as New Year's gifts, which he plants together with schoolchildren in a park in Kyiv. The magic pine cone on his hat helps transform the Christmas tree market into a nursery with Christmas trees growing in pots, and young people who consume alcohol into people who lead a healthy lifestyle. He then returns with his daughter to his cozy living Space of Love, which every person can create for their family.

Radar blends quality, momentum and freshness into one “what to watch now” number — so a great older film can sit lower than a rising new release. The Quality signal above is the time-neutral rating, which is why an acclaimed classic keeps a high quality score even when its Radar number is lower. Radar outputs are editorial algorithmic recommendations, not objective facts, and may change as signals update. A Radar score is not the same as a TMDB, IMDb or critic rating.
