About this Event
Getting Dumped on Christmas Day was just the beginning.
Declan’s holiday season is in ruins after his girlfriend, Stephanie, breaks up with him on the way to Christmas dinner. He manages to hide the split until New Year’s Day, when his car breaks down in the Scottish countryside. When his sister Rachel arrives to help, the sibling reunion quickly turns into a roadside reckoning. As secrets emerge and tensions flare, Declan is forced to confront the poor life decisions that led him here.
This screening is the Premiere Event for The Thistle in the Kiss, a coming-of-age drama.
All proceeds from this event will go directly toward the Save The Belmont Campaign to reopen and reimagine The Belmont Cinema, so we can continue to champion filmmakers and independent production companies like Felt Like Running Productions
