Raymond is an eleven-year-old boy who is living by a beautiful beach with his widowed mother, who surrounds him with love but can barely afford to feed him. He misses not having a father, especially during the holiday season. He has come to the conclusion that Santa stops by the homes of kids who have a dad. How he comes to share in the spoils of the gifts giving season is a riveting plot; this is a different kind of Christmas story. The human spirit is the same all over; young and old, rich and poor, we all strive for family bonds.
