Christmas Romance
Year: 2026
Director: Colin Budds
Main Cast: Tim Ross, Melina Vidler

With just weeks until he’s crowned King, Prince Henry of Serendovia is running out of time to follow his heart. Determined to prove to his family he was born to paint, not to rule, he enters a televised Christmas painting competition in disguise as “Mark”, trading his castle for the snowy town of Hollyfern Valley. Among his fellow contestants is Shelby, a self-taught painter who has put her own dreams on hold to save her mother’s community art hub from mounting debt. Sparks fly from their very first meeting, but when both scrape through the first round, they strike a deal to help each other improve. Painting lessons give way to snow angels, midnight baking and a slow dance in a barn. As rivalry turns to romance, Henry must find the courage to show Shelby his true colours.
