Christmas Eve in Miller’s Point sees four generations of the Balsano family gather for what may be the last Christmas in their family home in small-town Long Island.
Boisterous aunts, uncles, cousins, and one indomitable grandmother drink themselves merry and talk to no end—even as they strain to understand each other. As the group loses itself in rowdy celebration, cousins Emily and Michelle sneak away to claim the suburban winter wonderland for teenage rebellion.
In his follow-up to the acclaimed Ham On Rye, writer/director Tyler Taormina put his uncanny cinematic stamp on the holiday movie, working with a stand-out ensemble cast including Michael Cera, Elsie Fisher and Gregg Turkington.
"A holiday movie that breaks the mold without sacrificing the joy."The Hollywood Reporter

“..perhaps the closest a holiday film has come to truly capturing the experience of coming together for the festive season."Little White Lies
