“Santa’s Letters” is an indie “comedy spectacular” that recently screened at the 2002 Bare Bones International Film Festival. Who says it can’t be Christmas in June, July, whatever:
Ten-year-old Edward Krieger doesn’t want Santa Claus to stop by this year. Why not? Because there’s too much yelling at his house. Claus himself writes back: “Ed, you threw Santa Claus for a loop. The last time somebody told me not to come, the guy’s name was Scrooge. I had to send out three of my best people to work him over.”
Thus begins an innocent correspondence. But Mr. Claus is a busy man, and Edward is busy himself, growing up, beginning to notice a certain Miss Shannon Lunt…and helping his family through a rough time.
The film has its very own official site with cast bios, an interview with the filmmaker and plenty of film stills.
