Presentation 7: When Santa Was a Communist

A dark comedy about a troupe of actors deep in the provinces trying to bring holiday joy to children in a post-war, religiously divided country by putting on a Santa Claus play. But they face bans on the play due to ethnic and religious prejudices between the Catholics and Muslims who live and rule in Bosnia. A big problem is that in the old days before the war, Santa Claus in the country was also a communist. The story is based on true events.
