SANTA AI
A high-concept Christmas Romantic Comedy feature film intended for theatrical release, which has elements of YOU’VE GOT MAIL meets ABOUT A BOY.
LOGLINE: Santa’s spoiled, playboy son, Kris Kringle III, must reluctantly take over Christmas, but when his new AI technology nearly cancels the holiday, he must find real love and responsibility to save it.
It’s the story of Kris Kringle the 3rd, a drop-dead gorgeous, tech-obsessed billionaire playboy and Santa Claus’s only son. His mission is to change how KRINGLE, INC., is run because he never got to see his parents as a child and doesn’t want to follow in his father’s footsteps.
SANTA AI is a cautionary tale about commercialism, the loss of the human touch and connections, isolation, capitalism, and how technology is pulling us apart rather than bringing us together, all wrapped up in a holiday rom-com.
Kris Kringle
Playboy, Tech Innovator, Club Owner, and Billionaire
Kris plays hard and, thus far, has found ways to avoid being responsible for anything. He has a million friends, and everyone loves him. As an innovator, life of the party, he seems to be the most popular guy in Los Angeles, but he's desperately lonely.
Kris works hard and plays hard. His life is extravagant and over-the-top, but he's not happy and doesn't want to change until...
... he meets the one woman who doesn't fall for his BS.
A single mother, indie toymaker, and shop owner, she is the most beautiful woman he's ever seen, even though she doesn't know it, and she's complicated; she challenges him and is the one person who doesn't fall head over heels for his charm.
WHY THIS STORY RIGHT NOW? In today's world, we are growing apart via technology, online shopping, remote jobs, and billionaires control it all. This is not a story about AI; it's a story about being isolated and relying on machines to do the things we have forgotten to do ourselves. It's about finding our way back before it's too late.
The One WHO CHANGES EVERYTHING
A little girl, the daughter of a local indie toy shop, the one who sees through Kris and knows his secret.
When Kris meets this little girl, his life changes forever.
In this film, the juxtaposition of a tech billionaire who sees the world as his personal playground and a small indie business owner trying to survive and raise her daughter with love, happiness, and connection is a mirror into reality today.
WHY ME? I grew up in a world where it seemed like I had everything on the outside, but inside, I was slowly disappearing, and as a child, I never felt real love. In high school, I gave up everything about who I was to fit in with the popular crowd, and I soon realized that none of it was real. It left me longing for real connections.
