A Christmas Journey (HDhigh and HighTV)

Nothing says “Christmas” like Khruschev’s Soviet Russia! Move over, Frosty the Snowman, there’s a new festive cartoon in town. And by “new” we mean from the 1950s. And by “festive" we mean there are lions, whales, themes of isolation, and Santa in a fighter jet. Though, to be fair, putting Santa in a fighter jet seems like an extremely American idea. Maybe we’re not so different after all!

A Christmas Journey tells the tale of Kolya, a sweet boy who seems to live alone in a swanky penthouse apartment in Moscow. His father is away at Christmas because he is a weatherman in Antarctica. To repeat, he is a weatherman in Antarctica. "Sorry, son, I have to leave you alone because the penguins need to know the relative humidity!"
Kolya is saddened to think his father won’t have a Christmas tree down in the frozen wastes, so he dreams of bringing one to him. Kind of an odd dream, and dad would probably prefer a nice flask of vodka, but it’s the thought that counts. Fortunately for Kolya, Santa arrives in his fighter jet shaped like a shark made of stars, as everyone would expect. Santa doesn’t have much going on, it’s only Christmas Eve after all. So he takes Kolya on A Christmas Journey around the world to see exotic lands and animals, and maybe, just maybe, to deliver a tree to the father who worked so hard to abandon him. It’s a state-sanctioned miracle!

Bundle up, grab a warm bowl of borscht and join Mike, Kevin and Bill in Santa’s jet for A Christmas Journey!

Thanks a lot for posting RiffRaff1. I wonder why they didn't do the color version, which is readily available on YouTube  -
