Synopsis:
Xmas eve eve brings us back to a cold night in December 2020, in Queens, New York under semi-lockdown, where a chase between ex-lovers Dennis and Tom is happening within the overhead subway train.
Quick Thoughts:
One of two films from 2021’s queer holiday short film reviews that premiered among the festival circuit, “Xmas Eve Eve” is perhaps my favorite short film on the list! Set during the height of Covid restrictions, including face masks, job loss, and having to abandon major cities like New York City, this heartfelt story is a rollercoaster of emotions from start to finish. And as if that weren’t enough to make it worth watching, it is a visually stunning film! Seriously, the way Directer/Writer Dazhi Huang frames each scene is something I can’t say I’ve seen before – or at least used in such a brilliant way. Read on to find out what makes “Xmas Eve Eve” so great!
