Come join us for the premiere of Tamera’s Hill’s The Matchmaker! This feature was filmed in the beautiful city of San Diego, so it’s only right to have the premiere here as well. Come join us for a beautifully written and directed feature film that is PG-13 and suitable for all ages. A story about family and love that relates to all.Logline:
A famous pro football star lost connection with his family. His mother helps bring him back to his family roots and his first love.
Synopsis:
Lisa Colons and Jonas Johnson were high school and college sweethearts until a diabolical lie Jay’s best friend told broke them up. Jonas and Lisa went their separate ways and were successful. Several years pass by. Lisa, a successful high profile attorney, and Jonas a pro football player. Although they were successful in their careers, they both were unlucky in love.
Jay’s mother, Mom Johnson, sees her birthday and the holidays as a perfect opportunity to bring the two back together. She invites Lisa and Jay to her 50th birthday bash. Lisa and Jay didn’t have a clue they were being set up for the biggest surprise of their lives.
In the meantime Dad Johnson decides to play the matchmaker as well by inviting his best friend Charlie to seduce Barbara, his live-in sister-in-law. He despises her and wants her out of his house, but will his plan backfire?
It’s the day of the party and all hell breaks loose. Secrets are unveiled, hearts are broken, lessons learned, but most of all we learn we can never underestimate the power of love.
The Matchmaker is a heart-felt holiday romantic comedy that touches the soul of family.
