A family reunion at Christmas, what could go wrong? Melvin, a British author living in America, returns home to London for the holidays to introduce his American fiancé to his eccentric British-Caribbean family.
Their relationship is put to the test, as she discovers the world Melvin left behind revolves around his ex-girlfriend, who is now an international pop star. Written and directed by Aml Ameen (I May Destroy You), this comedy shines a light on the festive season in a black British household.
