Ten-year-old Edward Krieger doesn't want Santa Claus to stop by this year. Why not? Because there's too much yelling at his house.

Claus himself writes back: "Ed, you threw Santa Claus for a loop. The last time somebody told me not to come, the guy's name was Scrooge. I had to send out three of my best people to work him over."

Thus begins an innocent correspondence. But Mr. Claus is a busy man, and Edward is busy himself, growing up, beginning to notice a certain Miss Shannon Lunt... and helping his family through a rough time.

Through his letters, Santa inspires Eddie to bring Christmas to his family and friends all year long... even when that means doing something yucky like telling his big sister that he loves her. Of course, Santa picks up a few pointers along the way from his young protege as well.

But as Eddie's family continues to struggle with loss and new hopes, Eddie asks one more Christmas wish of The Fellow In The Red Suit.

This time Eddie needs a REAL miracle.

First thing's first: Parents, this movie is definitely family and child friendly. So if you're looking for a fun and delightful film to watch during the holidays or even a Sunday afternoon, I recommend Santa's Letters. It doesn't have the big Hollywood budget but with that, it makes up for it in charm and honesty in its storytelling. The director/writer did an amazing job keeping you engaged in the movie and following along as you watch the characters grow. If you're a fan of holiday movies or Christmas movie but are also tired of the gimmicks, gross humor, or computer graphics, I suggest adding Santa's Letters to your Christmas List!

Indie Holiday Film

Christmas is my favorite time of year and so I have a particular soft spot for Christmas movies and this might very well be my favorite Christmas production of all time. Apparently the use of adults playing kids isn't done to be quirky or meant to serve any point, but simply done out of necessity as it's very low budget. In the end it just adds to the charm. You can tell everybody is fully committed and gives it their all. All done in the spirit of giving as a xmas movie should be. The end result is a joyous, lovable and whimsical film. You are even treated to some cute and kooky animation.

On the one hand I'd love to see a remake with a bigger budget and on another I'd worry it might lose something in the process. As it is, it's a very special Christmas gift.

Curiosidades
The film was the culmination of an eight-year journey from page to screen. Writer-director Emmett Loverde wanted to figure out a way to give Christmas presents to everyone on his list without going broke and he didn't want to resort to a Christmas Letter. His solution was his annual Christmas Story. Self-written, self-designed, self-published, and self-bound, Emmett's Christmas Story had been an annual event since 1992. It was a major Christmas ritual for Emmett (weeks of work) and a minor one for the 200+ friends on his Christmas list. The 1993 Christmas Story was called "Santa's Letters". A question popped into Emmett's head: What if someone wrote to Santa Claus asking him NOT to come? A story composed entirely of letters back and forth sprang to life in a matter of days and a stage play and screenplay followed within several years.
