Here’s the storyline of Happiest Season

Hulu’s Happiest Season follows Abby, played by Kristen Stewart, a young and very much in love woman who plans on proposing to her partner Harper, played by Mackenzie Davis, at Harper’s family holiday party. However, like many planned proposals in Holiday movies, this one goes down the trash very fast, as Abby realises that her beloved girlfriend has yet to come out to her conservative family. In the Happiest Season trailer of this film, Harper says, “I am scared that if I tell them who I really am, I will lose them.” In another dialogue, Harper is heard saying in the trailer, through tears. “I am not hiding you, I am hiding me.” Happiest Season is a Clea Du’Vall-directed rom-com.

The screenplay of the movie is written by Mary Holland and Du Vall. In an earlier interview given to People Magazine, the Twilight fame actor Kristen Stewart revealed that she had always wished to see a gay Christmas rom-com film. The 30-year-old actor revealed that she was very proud of the writer/director Clea DuVall for carving this story at this point in time.
