The Twelve
Trees of Christmas strongly echoes the rivalries of "You've Got
Mail" or "Two Weeks’ Notice".
Cheri
Jamison (Lindy Booth) works at
the Shaughnessy Library in Manhattan, and she finds out shortly before
Christmas that the library is not to reopen after the holiday and is to be
demolished to make way for luxury apartments.
She immediately rallies the residents of her beloved Manhattan
neighbourhood to fight the closure but finds herself up against an ambitious
developer Tony Shaughnessy (Robin
Dunne).
Despite her efforts she is thwarted at every turn so decides to get
all the patrons of the library to participate in a Christmas tree decorating
contest to be judged on Christmas Eve by Rosaleen Shaughnessy (Dawn Greenhalgh).
The process of decorating the trees brings romance to some of the
participants including despite their best efforts, Cheri and Tony.
