The Snow Queen and Santa Claus were once old friends who learned the magic of cold together. But their paths parted when the Snow Queen, envious of her friend's strength, stole a magical artifact from which Santa Claus drew his power and created magic. The wizard was able to defeat the sorceress with some difficulty and imprisoned her in an ice prison. Thousands of years later, nowadays, the boy Yura finds the ice staff of the Snow Queen at the New Year's fair and unwittingly frees her. Returning to the modern world, she decides to take revenge on her sworn friend and comes up with an insidious plan that will freeze the whole world on New Year's Eve. For this purpose, she kidnaps a boy and takes him to the ice kingdom. To prevent her machinations and save not only Yura, but also the whole world, Santa Claus will need the help of the sorceress Baba Yaga, Ivan Tsarevich, Maria the artificer and other magical creatures. A new, incredible adventure awaits them.
