What is Our Italian Christmas Memories about?
When their mother leaves town for her first vacation in years, the Colucci siblings—Anna (Sarah Power), RJ (Jesse Irving) and Ella (Morgana Wyllie)—reunite over the holidays to care for their beloved but ailing grandfather, Vincent (Beau Bridges). Anna is back in town for the first time in years and is shocked to witness firsthand how quickly Vincent’s early stages of dementia have progressed. In an effort to jog her grandfather’s memory and bring back a cherished Christmas tradition, Anna sets out to recreate her late grandmother’s legendary pasta sauce. As Anna struggles to replicate the sauce, she and Vincent’s doctor, Greg (Markian Tarasiuk) begin to grow closer after romance sparks between the two. When Anna finally allows her siblings to help her on her quest to perfect the sauce in time for Christmas, she learns that the secret ingredient for a memorable holiday is the trio ultimately uniting despite their differences and past wounds.
