Four people stuck at a diner on Christmas Eve discover it's exactly where they need to be in the new Hallmark Movies & Mysteries movie.
It's quite rare to see a Hallmark movie that doesn't have some element of romance to it. Almost all of the films on Hallmark Channel are rom-coms. Some may be family drama, but usually there's still a romantic factor woven in. Over on Hallmark Movies & Mysteries, many of the mysteries are solved by two people that ultimately have romantic ties to one another. In Heaven Down Here, the latest Miracles of Christmas film on Hallmark Movies & Mysteries, the intertwining stories are about family and friends with nary a romantic kiss to be seen.
What is Heaven Down Here about?
Four disparate people find themselves stranded in a local diner on Christmas Eve when a snowstorm hits the town.
• Imani (Krystal Joy Brown) is a widowed mother of two who's having trouble making ends meet and reluctantly agrees to work the Christmas Eve shift, where she clashes with her boss Dan (Richard Harmon), who doesn't exactly embody the Christmas spirit.
• Felix (Juan Riedinger) is a local pastor desperately trying to secure food to feed parishioners in need on Christmas while his faith is challenged by his broken relationship with his son.
• Clara (Tina Lifford) is a hospice nurse with an obstinate patient Nancy (Phylicia Rashad) and whose daughter is moving away, which causes her to question her place in this world.
Throughout the evening, these four bicker, bond and unwittingly provide each other with the answer to their respective prayers.
Is Heaven Down Here based on a book?
Not quite! Heaven Down Here is inspired by Mickey Guyton's song of the same name.

Jesus Fricking Christ this is straight out of the Star Wars sequels "subverting your expectations" school of thought.
Having spent many hours of my life discussing romcoms with k-drama fans, they really like the "kissy bits" (not my words). It's like if you had a John Woo movie but nobody got shot.
