A simple kindness always creates another, even in an isolated and isolated place. When Smeerensburg's new mailman, Jesper, makes friends with maker Klaus, their gifts melt ancestral enmity and produce a sleigh full of holiday traditions. Director: Sergio Pablos Author: Zach Lewis, Jim Mahoney | When Jesper (Jason Schwartzman) distinguished himself as the worst student of the Post Academy, he was posted on a frozen island above the Arctic Circle, where peaceful locals hardly exchanged words, let alone letters . Jesper is about to give up when he finds an ally at local teacher Alva (Rashida Jones) and finds Klaus (Simmons, Oscar winner), a mysterious carpenter living alone in a hut full of handmade toys. These improbable friendships bring laughter back to Smeerensburg and create a new legacy of generous neighbors, magical banks and socks gently hanging from the fireplace. An animated Christmas comedy directed by Sergio Pablos, co-founder of Despicable Me, and Rashida Jones, KLAUS, Jason Schwartzman and JK Simmons.
