Fresh from its debut as an audience favorite at SXSW, Director Jay Duplass and IFC Films deliver a heartfelt, funny, and refreshingly offbeat holiday tale that is already being called “the feel-good movie of 2025.

On Christmas Eve in Baltimore, a newly sober former improv comic (Michael Strassner) rushes to his dentist for an emergency visit. What begins as an awkward holiday mishap unfolds into an unexpected connection with his older dentist (Liz Larsen). Together, they wander through the city, from quiet stoops to bustling parties, discovering humor, vulnerability, and the spark of an unlikely romance.

Praised as “an absolute side-tickling and soul-enriching delight” (Mashable) and “a beautiful film” (RogerEbert.com), Baltimorons is both a love letter to Baltimore and a tender exploration of finding hope in surprising places.

Join us before the event for a complimentary pre-show wine & cheese reception beginning at 6:15pm. Stay after the screening for a conversation with stars Michael Strassner and Liz Larsen moderated by Josh Sapan.
