Nitehawk’s LOCAL COLOR and Tribeca Film Festival present a screening of CHRISTMAS, AGAIN. Q&A with director Charles Poekel!

Christmas, Again screens at Nitehawk leading up to the 2016 Film Independent Spirit Awards for which director Charles Poekel is nominated for the prestigious John Cassavetes Award.

For a fifth consecutive December, a heartbroken Noel returns to New York City to work the night shift at a sidewalk Christmas tree lot. Devoid of any holiday spirit, he struggles to stay awake during the long, chilly nights in his trailer, while the daytime traffic keeps him from getting any real rest. As he slowly spirals into despair, he comes to the aid of a mysterious young woman in the park. Her warming presence, matched with some colorful customers, help rescue him from self-destruction.

Local Color is in partnership with Tribeca Film Festival.
