'A Family Christmas Gift': Release date, plot, cast, trailer and everything you need to know about Hallmark's Christmas flick

Amber spends the holidays with her Aunt Dora. She helps Dora plan a little fundraising Christmas Concert. The event brings Amber close to her aunt and perhaps, a new love into her life too!

As Haloween decors come down, Christmas ones go up and it is the perfect time to twirl to Christmas songs! When it comes to the holiday season, it is also the season of giving and joy. The best part about the season is when you give back to the society you come from and that completes the circle. 

Helping others celebrate and imbibe the spirit of Christmas is a noble act and more people should do it. Hallmark's upcoming Christmas movie is loosely based on such a premise. We are really excited about this film and we cannot wait for you to watch it with us!
