"A very long time ago, the oldest legend of all times was born at the North Pole. When young Nicolas tragically his parents, each family in the village decides to take him for one year. To express his gratitude, Nicolas, who has a real talent for whittling, leaves little wooden figurines for their children on their doorsteps at the end of each year. But one day, the village is struck by famine and no family can take Nicolas in. He's forced to leave and work for a cruel carpenter. When the carpenter forbids him from making his presents, the entire Christmas tradition is in danger of being lost."--Container.
