Christmas Story

A Finnish Christmas film for the entire family tells the touching story of how Santa Claus came to be Santa.

Did you ever come to think that Santa Claus, too, was once a child? If not, now is the time. Snapper Films' new family film Christmas Story reveals the unknown childhood of Santa Claus. The film is a story of selfless giving and lifelong friendship.

Christmas Story is directed by Juha Wuolijoki and written by Marko Leino, who has also written the domestic hits "Matti - Hell is for Heroes" and "Me and Morrison."

The first big Finnish Christmas film opened in November 2007 on 60 prints across Finland and became an instant box office hit.
