In order to become the next Santa Claus, a busy engineer must complete three selfless acts of kindness before Christmas Eve.

SYNOPSIS:

DAVID, a hardworking engineer, has to present a big presentation for his

company. His mom calls and tells him that his dad is really sick and he should

come visit. When David’s presentation goes horribly wrong, after discovering that

he spilled coffee on, NOELLE, the rep from the other agency, he decides to take

the trip to see his parents for the weekend. While visiting his parents, he

discovers that they are MR. & MRS. CLAUS. His dad wants to pass along the

honor of being Santa down to him, but he must complete three selfless acts of

kindness before Christmas Eve.

Contemplating on whether or not he wants to take the mantle of being Santa

Claus, he uses his time in someone else. When his dad discovers that he’s been

using his time for Noelle and not for the selfless acts, he tries to get him back on

track. David isn’t allowed any help when performing the selfless acts and it must

be done out of the pureness of his heart. Having no idea of how to perform

selfless acts of kindness, David keeps his pursuit of Noelle.

After a few coffee dates, David discovers that Noelle helps with a local

orphanage and is planning to put on a gingerbread house making competition

for them. When a few funders back out of Noelle’s project, David tries to come

in for the rescue. With his interest building with Noelle, he utilizes the help of his

dad and best friend/head elf, BENJAMIN, to win her over by providing a location

they got with magic.

Things seemed to be going great with David and Noelle, so he decides to tell her

about his new discovery of his parents. She gets extremely angry with him and

thinks he just making fun of her because she loves Christmas so much.

As Christmas Eve nears, David is majorly depressed. He hasn’t gone to work or

pretty much anything but sit in his parents living room on the couch. After

receiving a text from Noelle, David races to the coffee shop, where they always

meet to see her. She gives him an opportunity to prove what he said was true

and with the help of Benjamin, he is able to convince her.

With time running out and David thinking he hasn’t completed any selfless

tasks, his family surprises him at the coffee shop as his last selfless act is

completed and he can take the mantle of Santa Claus. Noelle doesn’t want to

become Mrs. Claus yet but would like to continue more dates with David.
