About A Family Matters Christmas

Three siblings from a newly blended family find the holiday season more chaotic than cozy. The oldest, Kelis, is used to keeping things in order while the middle child Aiden bristles at rules and the youngest, Emily, sees magic in the smallest moments. While working on a science project that is supposed to prove a holiday theory, the youngest accidentally calls up the spirit of Christmas. The next morning they discover they have swapped bodies and, worse, they cant switch back until they learn to spend the season together as a genuinely united family. Laughter and mishaps follow as they adjust to new roles, traditions, and togetherness.

Directed by Lavern Whitt from an original screenplay by Peggy Williams and Anthony Guilanti, this 2022 fantasy family comedy aims for warmth, humor, and holiday sentiment.
