action

When nine-year-old Nina-Nena learns that her parents want to split up and that her father is moving to America for work, she asks Santa Claus to bring her fallen parents back together. Although she no longer believes in Santa Claus, she is very surprised when the man in the red coat suddenly lands on the roof of her house. Nina-Nena is even more surprised when agents from an alien special unit of the Military Counter-Intelligence Service (MAD) storm into the house. In fear she flees with Santa Claus, while Major Kohlmann wants to prove by all means that the story with Santa Claus is just a hoax.

On their escape, Nina-Nena and Santa Claus arrive at a company Christmas party, where one waits longingly for the ordered Santa Claus and takes the real one for him. When the mistake is noticed here, Santa Claus has to hurry to get to safety from the police who called the organizer. Major Kohlmann learns that he also has to hunt a child. But that doesn't make it any easier. With the help of his magical powers, Santa Claus brings himself and Nina-Nena to safety and continues to flee with the girl on a snowmobile, sometimes flying through the air. Since Major Kohlmann now also takes up the chase by helicopter, the refugees hide in a container that is used as accommodation by a group of homeless people. Nina-Nena now finally realizes that Santa Claus really exists and is already dreaming that her parents will get together again. But Santa Claus explains to her that he cannot force people to love one another. He hopes, however, that their parents, worried about their daughter, will search for her together and that such a reconciliation will not be far off. This plan seems to work, because when Nina-Nena's mother discovers that her daughter is not in her bed, she calls her husband worried. But the police are also informed and Major Kohlmann assumes that the girl was kidnapped by Santa Claus.

So the reconciliation of Nina-Nena's parents is not long in coming. They are impatiently awaiting the return of their daughter after Santa Claus answers by phone. Major Kohlmann hopes to be able to catch Santa Claus when the child is "handed over", but he sends Nina-Nena alone to her parents' house. Kohlmann is disappointed and sees one last chance to arrest Santa Claus because he still has to prevent Nina-Nena's father from flying to America at the airport. This succeeds, but Santa breaks down from all the stress. Both Nina-Nena and Kohlmann admit to themselves in the face of dying Santa Claus that they actually always believed in him. When everyone comes to terms again, Santa Claus has disappeared without a trace. Nina-Nena goes home happy with her parents and is doubly happy when she sees Santa Claus passing by in the sky with his sleigh.

Reviews

tv-kult.com said: “The film is a very individual fairy tale that combines a bit of all things. The viewer is very reminded of Men in Black when the would-be agents try to grab Santa Claus and find his position in Nina Nena's house. Or how about ET? What is a bit macabre, however, is the fact that the film actually shows how Santa Claus blesses the temporal. You wouldn't believe it if the general atmosphere around the outside weren't designed in such a way that you just have to believe it. ”Conclusion: Although the film“ seems to be a cheap copy in some respects, it still has a very good presentation. There is nothing to complain about in terms of image or sound quality. Not just for the Christmas season, but a film that can bring its charm to viewers at any time of the year "
