Summary:
As Hogswatch, the Discworld equivalent of Christmas, approaches, an unlikely group of figures must band together to, not only save the Hogfather, but to save the world itself.
Join Death, his assistant Albert, Death's grand-daughter Susan, the staff of Unseen University and a magical computer on a fascinating and magical ride through the Discworld.
Initially aired on Sky One in the UK, this live action film is an adaptation of the Terry Pratchett novel of the same name from the best-selling Discworld book series.
This production won BAFTAs in 2008 for Best Visual Effects, and for photography and lighting (for Gavin Finney of The Mob).
