Overview
If you have or know any kids you'll know they can be terrified by the prospect of being on Santa's naughty list and not getting presents. Now imagine if kids knew they would get presents if they were naughty or nice. That's right, it would be anarchy. This comedy short film addresses this by telling the story of one of Santa's employees, who works on the naughty list, who upon finding out that all his hard work was wasted takes matters into his own clawed hands.
