This year, Little One won’t be celebrating Christmas. Little One is so sad that he wishes there were no Christmas Eve at all, but Christmas Eve, like all other nights, arrives… Then, a light begins to shine in the sky, so bright it dazzles everyone’s eyes. From the four corners of the world, a procession begins: Chimon the sock, the Sausage Thief, Guy Pome the fir tree, the fairy… all follow this light and unknowingly make their way to Little One’s Christmas. A tale full of fantasy and poetry that reimagines the symbols of Christmas.
