Home alone I would like to tell you about one of my favorite movie: Home Alone. I watch it every December for 2-5 times. It is a story about one cute boy, whom stayed alone in a house on days before Christmas. His family forgot him and went to Paris on holidays. Little Kevin felt happy alone at home, but he was attacked by a robbers. He tried to protect his house, setting different catches (traps) for the robbers. And he won in this "fight". When I watch this movie-I'm always feel Christmas around!

In addition to the corrections previously made, I recommend:

 

It is a story about a cute boy, who . . .

 

The word "one" places emphasis on the fact that there is only one cute boy, not two, not three, etc.   I think that such an emphasis is not necessary, because the exact number of cute boys in the movie is not important in the context of your post.  Therefore, I think that "a cute boy" is a better suited phrase.

 

Examples:

 

Question:  What's in the box?

Answer:     There's a cake in the box.

 

Question:   How many cakes are in the box?

Answer:     There's one cake in the box.

 

As you can see, in the second example the emphasis is on the exact number.  In the first example, that emphasis is absent.
