At Christmas time, a complicated Chicago family must push beyond their tumultuous emotional turmoil to pull everything back together again... everything they were, everything they are, and everything they will be. But when the mother (the foundation of the adult family) drops the bomb that she’s planning to divorce their father, can they muster up enough love and laughter to hold them all together?

“Nothing Like the Holidays” stars John Leguizamo as Mauricio Rodriguez, Debra Messing, Alfred Molina as Eduardo Rodriguez, Vanessa Ferlito as Roxanna Rodriguez, Freddy Rodríguez as Jesse Rodriguez, Jay Hernandez and Luis Guzmán. 

Directed by Alfredo De Villa, this film was penned by Alison Swan, Rick Najera, Robert Teitel, and Rene M. Rigal.
