TV Christmas movie filmed in Helen to air December 21st

Producers say filming pumped more than a half-million dollars into the White County-Helen economy

The movie that was filmed in Helen earlier this year is set to premiere in December. “Christmas Love Letter,” by Sunshine Films based out of Miami, is set to air at 6 p.m. EST, December 21 on the Lifetime channel.

The film’s director, Damian Romay, along with producers Omar Romay and Jacobo Rispa announced that Lifetime Films bought the movie.

Rispa reported to Jerry Brown, executive director of the Alpine Helen-White County Convention and Visitors Bureau, that the cost and economic impact during the filming in White County-Helen, Georgia, from April 18 through May 8, totaled $542,000.

After “Christmas Love Letter” airs, the county and local area are expected to benefit from additional visitation and further economic impact for years to come.
