action

The seven-year-old Michael’s family is spending Christmas this year in a ski hut in the mountains. But the mood is anything but contemplative, because his parents actually live separately and have only come together for the sake of their child. But since his father's new girlfriend is also there, the whole thing turns out to be very stressful and anything but contemplative. Disputes and jealousies threaten to ruin Christmas Eve for everyone involved. In this chaos, the speaking Willy Wuff suddenly appears. He has just rescued two puppies that should be carelessly "disposed of" and is trying to find shelter in the lonely mountain hut. When Michael discovers the three, he immediately begins to take care of the dogs and has almost forgotten the family's anger. Meanwhile, Willy Wuff tries to help his new friend and bring the arguing adults to their senses.
