It's that time again...
As always, December at the North Pole promises to be hectic, with Christmas wishes and gifts already piling up months in advance. But this year, Santa—also known as Father Christmas or the Big Dude—has had enough! He's taking a break from the cold and heads South for a change of pace.
And he's not going alone. Unexpectedly, a crew of adventurous elves is tagging along for the ride. On his journey to the Southern Hemisphere, Santa crosses paths with Mother Christmas, discovers true love, and gains a whole new perspective on Christmas—and himself.
This story, told by Nástio Mosquito and illustrated by Oga Mendonça, reimagines Christmas in a fresh light. It shifts away from the colonization of the imagination, sparking new visions and dreams, each speaking its own language.
