Manhattan Holidays
He's celebrating every holiday, no matter how weird. Follow a man as he forces his friends to endure a year of chaotic quests, from "National Cat Day" to "Pro-Life Cupcake Day." In this mockumentary-style feature, we follow Will, a man whose quirky New Year's resolution spirals into a year-long descent into social chaos. His mission: to religiously celebrate every single "National Day" on the calendar, no matter how obscure, inappropriate, or bizarre. With a camera crew documenting his every move, Will fanatically embraces each new day's theme, dragging his increasingly weary circle of friends, family, and coworkers along for the painfully awkward ride. The film chronicles a relentless series of cringe-inducing events driven by Will's literal and often misguided interpretations. On "National Peanut Butter Lovers Day," he incites a workplace argument by refusing to stock a popular brand. On "Frozen Food Day," he attempts to celebrate by sticking a fresh sandwich in a snowbank. The holidays grow progressively more unhinged, leading to a dark debate on "Supreme Sacrifice Day" about sacrificing children versus eating a Taco Bell Crunchwrap Supreme, and an ill-advised attempt to celebrate "National Serial Killer Day" by telling a story about Harvey Weinstein. As the year progresses, Will's obsession alienates everyone around him. His friendships are strained by his tone-deaf celebration of "National Pro-Life Cupcake Day," his inappropriate questions on "National No Bra Day," and his perplexing celebration of "Crown Roast of Pork Day" inside a high-end clothing store. Through it all, his friends are forced to navigate his absurd logic, trying to maintain their sanity as they're pulled into one disastrous scenario after another. The film is a sharp, satirical look at modern celebration culture, political correctness, and the fine line between festive enthusiasm and utter madness. —Alex R. Wagner
