Christmas Under the Mistletoe

Logline: When a beautiful marketing pro learns her boyfriend/boss has betrayed her, she must find a way to trust men again in order to find love at Christmas, while trying to make a million dollars for her new boss. Pitch: Christmas Under the Mistletoe is a family-friendly rom-com with several socially relevant themes that has Christmas everywhere, a little bit of magic, a little bit of music, and an uplifting ending. It keeps production costs low by being set in the present day, being primarily set in one location, having only 10 speaking parts, and no CGI.
