The Mistle-Tones

In the sparkling glow of a small town’s holiday season, Holly dreams of following in her late mother’s footsteps by joining the beloved, Christmas‑themed pop troupe that her mother helped create. The world of glittering lights, festive music, and earnest ambition forms a warm backdrop where talent contests feel as much like family reunions as they do competitions. The tone balances bright, feel‑good cheer with a hint of youthful longing, inviting the audience to savor both the magic of the season and the pressures of living up to a cherished legacy.

When Holly discovers that entry to the coveted group is blocked by the charismatic lead singer Marci, she is left to grapple with disappointment and the question of whether she can carve her own path. Rather than retreat, she envisions a fresh ensemble that captures the holiday spirit on its own terms. With the support of an eclectic band of coworkers—including the upbeat best friend AJ, the big‑hearted sidekick Larry, and the shy yet determined HR manager Bernie—she begins to assemble what will become the Mistle‑Tones. Their rehearsals unfold amidst the hum of a bustling mall and the cozy corners of a nearby tavern, where the town’s everyday personalities mingle with a shared love of music.

At the heart of the story lies a gentle rivalry between the established Snow Belles and the scrappy newcomers, each group eager to showcase its take on holiday harmony. This competition is less about winning and more about discovering what truly makes the season special: community, authenticity, and the courage to sing one’s own song. As Holly navigates the pressures of performance and leadership, she also encounters Nick, a driven boss whose hidden talent adds an unexpected spark to the mix, hinting at a romance that could deepen the emotional resonance of the festivities.

The film weaves together comedic moments, heartfelt connections, and the shimmering atmosphere of a Christmas Eve celebration, promising a story where the pursuit of a dream leads to the discovery of love, friendship, and the genuine spirit of the holidays.
