As a beautifully animated Christmas tale, FINDING SANTA takes place in a small orphanage located in the snowy Danish countryside. Inside live eight children, one of whom is Julius – an eight-year-old boy who is obsessed with Christmas. But when he faces conflict with two other children, Greger and Pip, Julius hides inside his Christmas box – only for it to take flight with magical powers into a winter wonderland world. Julius adventures are just beginning, as he faces the scary Krampus, who has taken over the Winterland and Tomten, leaving it up to Julius to find Tomten. Along the way, Julius receives help from unlikely friends – a golden angel and a living marzipan pig.
Full of enchanting animation and delight, FINDING SANTA is a holiday feature that will reinforce beliefs in the Christmas holiday, appealing to all ages.
“FINDING SANTA is a sweet and gentle animated film,” wrote The Inner Circle.
