It's the Eve of Christmas in northern Finland, and an 'archeological' dig has
just unearthed the real Santa Claus.
But this particular Santa isn't the one you want coming to town. When the
local children begin mysteriously disappearing, young Pietari and his father,
Rauno, a reindeer hunter by trade, capture the mythological being and attempt
to sell Santa to the misguided leader of the multinational corporation
sponsoring the dig.
Santa's elves, however, will stop at nothing to free their fearless leader
from captivity. What ensues is a wildly humorous nightmare -- a fantastically
bizarre polemic on modern day morality.
"Rare Exports: A Christmas Tale" is a re-imagining of the most classic of all
childhood fantasies, and is a darkly comic gem soon to be required perennial
holiday viewing.

I love this weird, quirky little film! I've seen it four times so far, and
it is firmly in my yearly Christmas Film Roundup.
What draws me back each time is not so much the film itself, although it does
have appeal, with the new take on the classic Santa belief, but the main
attraction has to be the utter cuteness that is exhibited onscreen by the two
These two little fellas are just so mind-numbingly cute that words fail me
when trying to describe them.
But here's three words that sum it up: Watch. This. Film. :)
