Santa is grieving the loss of his wife and is fed up with the commercialization of Christmas. Juniper Lane, who is grieving for her dad, seeks to persuade Santa to resume delivering Christmas gifts. Then an evil gang steals and burns gifts intended for the poor. Forrest gives a spirited portrayal of Juniper and enchants as she delivers descriptions of Earth from above.
