Surviving Christmas with the Relatives

2018 · 101 min

A chaotic, mildly sharp holiday comedy where family friction and grief simmer under forced cheer, easy to watch but rarely laugh-out-loud.

Overview: Two sisters come together to spend Christmas with their families in their recently deceased parents’ falling down country house, with hilariously chaotic consequences, as ancient sibling rivalries flare up again to sabotage the hoped for season of good will.
How it feels: Light, satirical, warm and absurd. Measured and easy to follow.
About: Family, grief, class, identity
Content: Mild sexual content and language. No violence or gore.
Note: Written by AI, so it can be wrong. Full breakdown
