Emily Moss Wilson’s movie “My Southern Family Christmas” revolves around the plot of a journalist, Campbell (Jiacy Elliot), who comes over for a chance to learn about her biological father, Everett (Bruce Campbell), for the first time in her life without her father’s knowledge about her true identity which will change their family Christmas forever.
The plot story takes place during the time of Christmas when Campbell receives a call from Jennifer revealing her real father. On the other side, we see her boss demanding an original story for his Dallas-based airplane magazine, and then Campbell decides to go in search of her father as this will give a true story to her boss.
Where Is The Actual Location Of The Movie?
The movie is said to be filmed in Louisiana as many Hallmark movies are filmed there, and it is said some of the cast members belong to Louisiana. Is this true? Let’s find out. Jaicy Elliot, in one of her interviews, said, “Louisiana is fantastic, and we were lucky enough to film in authentic Cajun villages and homes and coffee houses,” which we get to see during the Christmas scene in the movie.
This really meant that the movie was shot in Louisiana, as also reported to the ‘Gonzales Weekly Citizen’. It is said to have been filmed particularly in the Ascension Parish in Louisiana in the town of Sorrento and in the Baton Rouge metropolitan area of Louisiana.
The filming of this movie began on September 6, 2022, and was concluded filming within the same month. Many major scenes were said to be shot in the Ascension Parish in Louisiana between the dates of September 21, 2022, till September 23, 2022.
