This year however he decides to not only venture to visit his Christmas family but to seek out also his real family, who 15 years ago he left behind. Faced with an uncertain future, and wanting to settle his tumultuous past, Hector finds himself faced with the joys and disappointment of stepping back into society, but one thing is for sure, this Christmas will be one that he always remembers.
