On a snowy Christmas Eve, a young boy named Sammy discovers a mysterious key he knows belongs to Santa Claus and sets out to return it. But each time he gets close, someone needs his help, and Sammy chooses kindness over urgency. As the night slips away, he begins to fear he's failed—only to discover that the true purpose of the key was never about returning it at all.
