The Christmas Between is a cinematic love letter to grief, motherhood, and faith — a story where loss becomes legacy, pain births purpose, and Christmas becomes the day love comes home again.

​

On a snow-covered Christmas Eve, Maya Varner — a mother who’s spent years surviving loss — is pulled through moments that awaken every sense: laughter long gone, forgiveness rediscovered, and hope returning. Once a single mother of twin sons and later a blended family of four, Maya has survived divorce, heartbreak, and rebuilding her life from scratch. But nothing compares to the ache she carries now — the loss of her eldest twin, Malik, on Christmas Eve.

​

Though she’s created a life that looks whole — a career helping others heal, a warm home, and a loving fiancé, Nicholas — inside she’s still frozen in time. When a winter storm cuts the power, Maya is guided on a spiritual journey through her own past: walking through doorways that reveal younger versions of herself — the scared, the heartbroken, the hopeful. With every encounter, she offers compassion where shame once lived and forgiveness where silence once stood.

​

By dawn, Maya realizes the miracle wasn’t in time travel, but in the healing that happens when we open our hearts again.

​

Rooted in the spirit of holiday redemption films like The Preacher’s Wife and Black Nativity, The Christmas Between bridges faith and humanity — transforming grief into grace and storytelling into healing.

​

This isn’t just a movie; it’s a movement of hope, healing, and wholeness. Beyond the screen, the project anchors a real-world ecosystem that offers grief support circles, therapeutic retreats, and purpose-driven partnerships for families navigating loss. Through this film, we aim to make conversations around grief accessible, spiritual, and safe — especially for women, mothers, and families rebuilding after tragedy.
