The film takes place in the town of Ironville, where an evil factory overlord has prevented Christmas from being celebrated for several years. This one particular year, siblings Bobby and Marian meet another young girl, Angela, trying to sell Christmas holly.
Angela's mission is to bring Christmas back to Ironville, and they must convince the town to defy the law to do it.

* CorruptCorporateExecutive: Kovet, who uses his power as the boss of the flange factory- where practically everyone in town works- to even do such things as boss around his own enforcement group and cancel Christmas.
* DangerThinIce: The kids walk on ice when cutting down a Christmas tree, and the ice inevitably cracks and they lose the tree in the river.

* ForbiddenHoliday: Christmas, which has been banned in Ironville twenty-five years, due to Kovet's personal greed.
