Greg is coasting through senior year of high school as anonymously as possible, avoiding social interactions like the plague while secretly making spirited, bizarre films with Earl, his only friend. But both his anonymity and friendship threaten to unravel when his mother forces him to befriend a classmate with leukemia.

Editor's Verdict

❌NO

"While the film deals with themes of human connection, generosity, and transformation—which align loosely with Christmas themes—the setting, plot, and iconography are entirely independent of the Christmas season. It is a coming-of-age drama, not a holiday film."
