The film is set in the town of North Station, where children's letters to Santa Claus ( Benoît Brière) were delivered for many years and answered by a local family; after the death of his grandfather, Samuel (Xavier Morin-Lefort) and his girlfriend Évelyne (Roxanne Gaudette-Loiseau) decide to carry on the tradition, but Samuel goes missing and is presumed dead after trying to deliver the letters in a snowstorm, when in fact he has been saved and taken to Santa's workshop at the North Pole. When a letter arrives fifty years later from Satia, the granddaughter of Évelyne ( Renée Claude), requesting Santa's help in curing Évelyne of cancer, Samuel becomes motivated to go out to reunite with his lost love.
