About the film

What it’s about

A young actor takes seasonal work as Santa Claus. An attractive woman asks him to stage a festive performance for her older boyfriend. What starts as a simple request leads to dramatic developments that unearth dark secrets from the actor's past and his ties to the people he meets.

What hooks you

Valery Stepanov and Angelina Poplavskaya play the actor and the woman who draws him into the unfolding events. This miniature dramedy, set on a fateful New Year's Eve, blends drama and comedy in a concise 20-minute runtime.

Who it’s for

It will appeal to those who like compact stories where a festive setting turns into something darker, and who enjoy character-driven drama with a twist of dark comedy.
