Ella (Lyndie Greenwood) returns home for the holidays to convince her grandmother Tess (Darlene Cooke) and mother Micah (Holly Robinson Peete) to deal with their family saga. Ella believes the best way to bring her family back together is to celebrate Christmas, something they haven’t done since her grandfather passed away.

To make the holiday festive, Ella enlists Griffin (Brooks Darnell) to help. It just so happens that Griffin is the newly elected mayor – and Ella’s ex-boyfriend! After spending Christmas together, Ella, Micah and Tess decide to celebrate Kwanzaa and embrace its unifying message. All three women celebrate the holidays in a unique way and reconnect with one another in this heartwarming, multi-generational story.
