oel (Kentucker Audley), the appropriately named protagonist of “,” approaches the holiday season more as he would a duty than an occasion for good cheer. For a brief period each year, he ventures from upstate New York to Greenpoint, Brooklyn, to sell Christmas trees. He stands stoically while customers snap pictures of the firs on their cellphones or pepper him with questions about different evergreens.

A customer mentions the nice girl who worked at the stand last year, clearly Noel’s ex. Whether heartbroken or simply laconic, Noel seems reluctant to make conversation unless directly addressed.

Noel, who lives in a trailer, one night takes in a young woman, Lydia (Hannah Gross), who has passed out on a bench. Whether these two might provide some comfort for each other is the closest that “Christmas, Again” comes to having a plot.
