Four by Three has acquired the distribution rights to Julian C. Santos’ debut feature The Last Christmas Party. While technically a romantic drama, The Last Christmas Party is a bittersweet holiday movie about the highs and lows of romance in college. The movie is told in nonlinear order and replays the party from the perspective of three different couples.

The film was written and directed by Julian C. Santos and stars Anna Clare Kerr, James Williams, Martin Drop, Lainey Woo, Gabe Armentano, and Samantha Brooks. The Last Christmas Party has been accepted into several film festivals, including the Manhattan Film Festival, and early reviews have called it “…a magnificent expression of what cinema can do with just a camera, a bunch of willing people, and, obviously a lot of talent.” (Rome Prisma).

Synopsis: Over the course of one night a group of college friends try to navigate their complicated love lives before they leave for winter break.
