On Christmas Eve, Cliff, a down-on-his luck comedian who can't catch a break, chips a tooth, and suddenly finds himself in the late-night care of Didi, a sharp-witted, no-nonsense dentist. What should have been a quick fix unfolds into an unforgettable night of unexpected twists, comic mishaps, and a brewing heartfelt connection. Their holiday misadventures lead to the discovery that the best gifts aren't under the tree--they're the ones you never saw coming.

Bilge Ebiri New York Magazine/Vulture It’s light on its feet but gradually gathers real emotional weight. It’s also beautifully shot and steeped in atmosphere. We walk away from it feeling like we’ve actually been somewhere and felt something. Sep 5, 2025 Full Review Jake Coyle Associated Press One of those little movies you might stumble across and be surprised that it hooks you. It does so despite -- or more likely because -- of its complete lack of flashiness or any self-evident attempt to “hook you.” Rated: 3/4 Sep 4, 2025 Full Review Ben Kenigsberg New York Times While the film has clear affection for its Baltimore locations, considerably less thought has gone into creating convincing situations for those backdrops. Sep 4, 2025 Full Review Mark Jackson Epoch Times What begins as an emergency dentist appointment blossoms into a night of bonding, tomfoolery, and romance. It's a star-is-born moment for newcomer Strassner. Rated: 3.5/5 Sep 6, 2025 Full Review Phil Walsh Geek Vibes Nation A sweet and cozy coming-of-age and semi-love story that is as much about finding yourself as it is about finding your other half. Charming and unexpectedly funny, this has the makings of a new favorite to add to the Yuletide holiday collection. Rated: 9/10 Sep 5, 2025 Full Review Kurt Loder Creators Syndicate But the movie gets over on pure charm, and if you take the time to see it now, it can inhabit your heart until this year's Yuletide actually arrives.
