The movie kicks off by really showcasing an acoustic guitar. They couldn’t have more shots of this guitar if they tried. We’re in a bar where a woman is singing a lovely version of Here We Come A-Wassailing. Her name is Maggie, and she announces she’s about to do a show in Chicago and open for Dalton Blake! But then her manager shows up and tells her that the big opening gig… is off. However, he gives her a new phone with a bunch of fancy apps on it. She responds, “Nah, I’ve got my reliable flip phone right here, bud.”

With no reason to stay in Chicago, she hops in her old van and heads home to Ed’s Christmas Tree Farm. It’s a family-run lot, and her parents are thrilled to have her back.

Cut to New York City, where we meet two siblings who clearly don’t like each other and whose dad has just died. Their lawyer is reading the will, and one item in particular catches their attention: a board seat that will go to whichever sibling has a higher net worth at Christmas. He’s Archer, and she’s Piper. They didn’t have a normal childhood or normal Christmases, but they do have a picture of themselves in front of Ed’s Christmas Tree Lot.

Back at the lot, Maggie’s best friend asks her to consider directing the Christmas play.

Archer is staring at the picture and decides to search for the lot. He rents a cabin and heads to the lot. When he arrives, he tells Maggie’s mom he wants to get a tree for the first time as an adult. She encourages him to cut his own and suggests that he go with Maggie. It turns out he runs the company that created all the fancy apps she hates. When she finds out, she turns on him and gets him out of there as quickly as possible. But when she learns her manager can’t book her anywhere, she starts to feel guilty for being mean and goes to apologize. She is shocked to find him putting the Christmas tree outside in a tub of water. When she asks about his family, he avoids the question and gives her baked goods.

Maggie begins to open up about her failing career and how her manager is pushing her to embrace the tech. Archer says, “I think it’s important to have a balance.” Maybe he’s not so bad after all.

The next day, Piper and her kids show up. It turns out they had the same idea. The kids join the Christmas play, and Archer gives them a tutorial on his cool app. Maggie realizes, “Oh, that actually is kind of neat.”

Maggie and her family start inviting Archer and his family to all the fun Christmas activities, and they’re all loving it.

The next day, Archer pitches a new app to Maggie—live-streaming performances—and wants Maggie to be on the test stream. There’s still a lot to figure out, but she’s interested.

Maggie’s dad gets on social media and talks about the app, which goes viral and causes Archer’s net worth to rise. When Piper finds out, she leaves with the kids.

Archer has a heart-to-heart with Maggie, and the sparks are flying, but she gets a call from her old manager and considers going back to work with him. Archer thinks that’s a bad idea and tells her she’s better than that guy.

It’s the night of the big Christmas play, and they’re going to live-stream it on the app. Piper shows up with the kids, and they make up and agree to sit on the board together.

Just as the performance is about to start, the power goes out, but that’s nothing for some small-town charm. They manage to get the power back up, and the show is a hit. The kids sing, and then it’s Maggie’s turn. She crushes it, and the app loves her.

After she gets off stage, Maggie makes up with Archer, and they share a kiss.
