Julenissens verksted

When nine-year-old Mari wakes one night to discover a nisse in her bedroom, it marks the beginning of an extraordinary Christmas adventure. With a forgotten nisse mitten as their only clue, she, her grandmother and a very sceptical dad set off on an eventful journey to find Santa Claus, while the mitten’s owner, Santa’s little helper Stompen, does everything he can to stop them. Julenissens verksted must not be discovered—it would be a catastrophe! Their journey takes them through forests, open heathland and beautiful winter landscapes. But there are plenty of challenges too: they must get past the forest’s guardian, Kjerringa med staven, and battle their way through a terrible snowstorm. The journey is not only exciting—it also helps the family see one another in a new light, and they eventually discover the true magic of Christmas. Get ready for this year’s Christmas film for the whole family, packed with festive spirit and well-known songs by Thorbjørn Egner, including Kaptein Sorte Bill, Dyrene i Afrika and Det snør det snør, performed by some of Norway’s leading artists, including Sissel Kyrkjebø.
