When Santa Claus (Alessandro Gassmann), during an existential crisis, decides to take a vacation and suddenly disappears, his wife Margaret (Luisa Ranieri) - always ready to support (and endure) her husband Nicola - has nothing left to do but roll up her sleeves and save the most special day of the year. It won’t be an easy task, because the enterprising witch Sabrina (Caterina Murino), better known as the “Befana,” and her friend Santa Lucia (Valentina Romani) are determined to steal the show from Santa Claus by becoming the stars of the Holidays.
