What the film is about

Three legendary winter wizards — Saint Nicholas, Santa Claus, and the ancient Spirit of Winter — argue over who is now “in charge” of winter holidays in Ukraine, and race to fulfill little Vira's wish. But Vira unexpectedly wants Christmas to cease to exist altogether — and the holiday disappears from the city and from people's memories. The wizards turn into ordinary people and unite to bring back Christmas and faith in miracles.
