Hallmark’s “#Xmas,” directed by Heather Hawthorn-Doyle, is a romantic comedy about a young woman named Jen. Although she is known for her Christmas projects, her social media presence is lacking, to say the least. A brand design contest might be just what Jen needs, and she decides to enter the contest as a family influencer. With the help of her best friend Max and her little nephew, Jen posts a video of her “happy family”.
However, the plan ends up working too well and Jen is chosen as one of the finalists. Torn between uncovering the truth or potentially winning the competition, Jen must also contend with the complicated feelings that have surfaced along the way.
Due to its humorous and heartfelt story, the film can easily engage the audience. One of the biggest appeals of a Hallmark production is its eye-catching visuals, which help viewers feel the full Christmas spirit. People are naturally eager to know where the #Xmas movie was shot.
