Julekongen (2012)

9-year-old Kevin lives in a boring neighborhood in small-town Sølvskogen (Silver Forest), with his eccentric middle-class family. He is bullied at school, but too scared to say anything to anyone. His life takes a solid turn when in best Narnia style he encounters the magic kingdom Ridderdalen (Knight Valley) with knights and a big castle. However, this kingdom has not celebrated Christmas in several years, because Queen Iris and her daughter mysteriously disappeared, along with a magical silver glove that was used to make snow, and King Sølve went into depression and now lives out in the wild with no intention of coming back. Snerk, the king's dubious brother, desperately wants the throne, but is in no position to claim it without the glove. When Kevin arrives and brings snow from the other side, the residents of the kingdom mistakenly believes he has the ability to make snow. He is therefore appointed the new king, and promises that he will restore Christmas before Christmas Eve. But what happens when the people of Ridderdalen realize that Kevin is a fraud? Kevin has to balance his new life with his old one, where he has to hide the truth from everyone; his family, including his curious little sister Mira; Eiril, his kindhearted new best friend; and Peder, his bully who will do anything to make his life as miserable as possible. Several plot twists make this adventure all the more exciting.
