WHAT:

A teenage girl is practicing her lines for the church Christmas play when she accidentally “butt-dials” everyone in her phone’s group chat: her grumpy neighbor, a talkative classmate, her youth pastor, and a friend who knows nothing about church. Suddenly, they’re all on speakerphone listening to her narrate the Nativity story.
What begins as an embarrassing accident turns into a hilarious, multi-voice phone chaos — and eventually a powerful moment when each caller responds in their own way to the message of Jesus’ birth.
