Reelic Guide
The Christmas Gift Your Family Will Watch Together
Everyone’s sitting together for once. The tree’s up. The gifts are opened. Now imagine pressing play on a film that tells your family’s story — and watching the room go quiet.
A gift the whole family watches
Most Christmas gifts are individual. This one is shared. A Reelic film about your family — the parents, the grandparents, the generations — is the kind of thing that turns Christmas morning into a moment everyone remembers. It’s not just a present. It’s an event.
How to make it in time
Reelic films take about 10 minutes to create and arrive within an hour. You could make it on Christmas Eve if you needed to. But we’d recommend doing it a few days early so you can watch it first and make sure it’s exactly right.
Gift ideas
Make a film about your parents’ story. Make one about your grandparents. Make one about the family as a whole. Or make one for each branch of the family and give them out as gifts. At $24.99 for the Heritage tier, it costs less than most presents under the tree — and means more than any of them.
Frequently Asked Questions
Can I make a Christmas Reelic film last-minute?
Yes. The process takes about 10 minutes and the film is delivered within an hour. You could create one on Christmas morning if needed.
Can I buy a Reelic film as a gift voucher?
We’re working on gift vouchers. In the meantime, you can create the film yourself and share it as the gift, or send the link to the recipient to make their own.
