David and the Elves
In this Polish film, David is a young boy who’s moved to the big city and is deeply unhappy about it because his busy parents have “forgotten the meaning of Christmas.” After meeting Albert the Elf, who left Santa’s care to “figure out what Christmas is all about”—it seems like he should already have a handle on this, honestly—David runs away from home to visit his grandparents in the Tatra mountains, and the pair have some adventures along the way. I have no idea why Santa is posing like that in the picture above, but I’m digging his energy.
