Writer-director Charles Poekel was himself a Christmas tree salesman and used his earnings to finance the film.[2] The film was shot in 16 mm.[3]

Critical reception

Based on 20 critics' reviews, Christmas, Again has a 100% approval rating on review aggregator website Rotten Tomatoes.[4]

Sheila O'Malley of RogerEbert.com gave the film 3 and 1/2 stars out of 4 and said "the most striking thing about it is its evocation of an extremely specific mood. Once we settle into it, and it happens early, everything else becomes possible."[5] Alonso Duralde of TheWrap noted, "Delicate and restrained, the film offers the messages of redemption and renewal we so often crave from a Christmas movie without wrapping its themes and characters in tinsel."[6]

Accolades

The film has been nominated for several independent film awards including the John Cassavetes Award at the 2016 Independent Spirit Awards.[7]
