Upon returning for Thanksgiving break from their first semester at college, a group of high school friends reunite in their hometown, Hollidaysburg, Pennsylvania.
On the first day of the holiday break, Scott (Tobin Mitnik), a former prom king, is dumped by his girlfriend, Heather (Claire Chapelli), before re-establishing a connection with his old friend, Tori, when she accidentally bumps into him with her car following a reunion party.
Hollidaysburg is one of two films sponsored by the Starz reality competition show The Chair, the other being YouTube personality Shane Dawson's Not Cool.
"[6] Frank Schreck of The Hollywood Reporter wrote that "despite its gimmicky provenance, Hollidaysburg proves to be a nicely low-key, unassuming coming-of-age tale,"[7] while Chris Packham of The Village Voice stated, "Martemucci intertwines these stories gracefully, and with the charm and charisma of her cast, makes clever banter and script contrivances seem completely natural and unaffected.
"[10] Regardless of Hollidaysburg's significantly more positive critical reception, on the final episode of The Chair, broadcast on November 8, 2014, it was revealed that Dawson's film won the prize.
