Description

The tech-free, unplugged Johnsons and the tech-obsessed, gadget-loving Johnstons accidentally switch houses for the holidays. The Johnsons arrive at a home filled with beeping gadgets, blinking lights, and constant screen time, while the Johnstons find themselves in a house where every device is locked away, and the only entertainment is board games and books. As both families try to adjust to the other’s lifestyle, hilarity ensues, and they soon discover that sometimes the best Christmas is one that takes you out of your comfort zone.
