Nice idea and well processed as a Christmas film.
Well acted and very beautiful snowy landscapes and old atmosphere.
Only ending is a question mark.
3.5 star

Nice Christmas movie. I really liked how they wanted to give Santa Claus and his origins a realistic history, every detail has been thought of, even why he wears a red suit, uses a sack and a sleigh and has so many reindeer. It even explains why parents help Santa Claus and sometimes wrap the presents for the children themselves. A very sympathetic family/youth film. 3.5*

Original variant about the origin of the Christmas party. It is a pity that after a nice start the film starts to lose steam towards the end. The enchanting winter images provide some compensation. Beautiful poster.
