Hallmark Channel’s A Holiday In Harlem

A Holiday in Harlem follows the story of Jazmin (Washington) whose grandmother brings her to Harlem for a quick visit.

“However, when Mama Belle is injured, Jazmin agrees to stay in the neighborhood and take over co-chairing their block’s annual Christmas Jamboree with her old best friend, Caleb (Adams),” the synopsis said.

Unfortunately, things aren’t as easy as she expected. She realizes that the job wasn’t what she thought it was. However, her latest project draws her in and affects her in many ways than she can imagine.

“A successful corporate fixer, Jazmin expects the job to be easy but quickly finds that she has a lot to learn about the community and her heart,” per the synopsis.

Hallmark Channel – Filming A Holiday In Harlem

Its original title was Christmas in Harlem. Even though the film seems like it’s taking place in Harlem, as its title suggests, the movie was actually one of the five flicks, which Hallmark filmed in Connecticut. They started production on September 4 and ended filming on September 25.

Andrew Gernhard, the owner of Synthetic Cinema, which filmed the Christmas movie, said they had to do a lot of research before they transformed Hartford into Harlem. Fortunately, they managed to find sections of Hartford and East Hartford that matched the look, vibe, and appeal of Harlem, which they all recreated in Connecticut.

If you missed the premiere of the movie, you can catch it on November 23, November 27, December 2, December 12, December 17, December 25, and December 30.
