IFC Films has acquired the North American rights to “Christmas Eve in Miller’s Point,” a holiday season dramedy that had its world premiere at this year’s Cannes Film Festival.
The film was directed by Tyler Taormina (“Ham on Rye”) and stars newcomer Matilda Fleming, as well as Michael Cera (“Barbie”), Francesca Scorsese (“We Are Who We Are”), Gregg Turkington (“Ant-Man”), Elsie Fisher (“Eighth Grade”), Sawyer Spielberg (“Masters of the Air’) and Maria Dizzia (“Martha Marcy May Marlene”). IFC will release “Christmas Eve in Miller’s Point” later this year on Nov. 15.
The film kicks off as a rambunctious extended family arrives at their Long Island hometown for the holidays. But before the night is over, two teenage cousins use the chaos sparked by the yuletide reunion to sneak out into the wintry night and make the holiday their own.
