PITCH

This is the holiday film that audiences didn’t know they needed.

​​In Broken Ornaments, Christmas becomes the backdrop for Tippi Avalon’s transformation from a picture-perfect woman on the verge of collapse to someone who embraces life’s imperfections. Tippi's meticulously curated world falls apart when her husband publicly leaves her for a free-spirited woman. Left to pick up the pieces, she finds an unlikely ally in Hank Geller, her new rugged, transient, unconventional new neighbor. Their clashing personalities and lifestyles create sparks of frustration, humor, and ultimately, romance.
 
This isn’t just another Christmas movie—it’s a sharp, heartfelt, and refreshingly real story about reinvention, unexpected love, and finding beauty in life’s imperfections. Tippi Avalon’s picture-perfect world shatters when her husband publicly leaves her, forcing her to confront the messiness she’s spent a lifetime avoiding. Enter Hank Geller—rugged, transient, and the complete opposite of everything she thought she wanted. Their clash is electric, their journey is transformative, and their chemistry is undeniable.

What sets Broken Ornaments apart is its depth, humor, and emotional authenticity. It’s got the festive charm audiences crave, but with a modern edge that makes it re-watchable beyond the holiday season. The push-pull of Tippi and Hank’s relationship builds naturally, giving audiences a love story that feels earned. It challenges the polished Christmas fantasy and replaces it with something even better: a story that is heartfelt, raw, and deeply satisfying.
​
With the wit of The Family Stone, the emotional pull of Love Actually, and the originality to stand on its own, Broken Ornaments is positioned to be a standout in the holiday film market. It’s a film that proves what’s broken isn’t always ruined—it’s sometimes just waiting to shine in a whole new way.
