Sinopsis

What if the secret to saving Christmas was orbiting the Moon?

Days before Christmas 1968, Santa’s powerful new sleigh is sabotaged during a test flight, catapulting it into space.

Meanwhile, NASA is counting down to the historic launch of Apollo 8. To pull off the ultimate lunar rescue, Santa must do the impossible: team up with astronauts Frank Borman, Jim Lovell, and Bill Anders, outsmart the sinister Krampus, and recover his sleigh by Christmas Eve.

Back on Earth, twins Cash and Lillian still believe in the magic they witnessed one stormy winter night. As strange events begin to unfold, they may hold the key to saving Christmas—if the wayward elf Glitch can find his way home.
