In a world where holiday cheer is under siege, a legendary figure must trade his sleigh for a battle stance in the high-octane action film Kringle. Directed by Mark Dindal and produced by Lorenzo Di Bonaventura, this explosive short film reimagines Santa Claus not as a jolly gift-giver, but as the last line of defense against a shadowy force threatening the very spirit of Christmas. When a mysterious and powerful enemy launches an assault on his workshop, the man known as Kringle, portrayed by Chris Bolinger, is forced to reveal his long-dormant combat skills. Alongside him, Nina Bolinger and Angela Bolinger portray key allies drawn into the frantic conflict, each with their own vital role to play in the desperate defense. Blending festive iconography with relentless, pulse-pounding set pieces, the story follows Kringle’s brutal journey from a symbol of peace to a warrior of necessity, protecting his legacy and the magic of the season by any means necessary. This seven-minute adrenaline rush delivers a fiercely original twist on classic lore, crafting a gritty and atmospheric holiday tale where the greatest gift is survival.
