Estranged from his father, college student Jake is lured home to New York for Christmas with the promise of receiving a classic Porsche as a gift. When the bullying football team dumps him in the desert in a Santa suit, Jake is left without identification or money to help him make the journey. Meanwhile, his girlfriend, Allie, does not know where he is, and accepts a cross-country ride from Jake's rival, Eddie.
Editor's Verdict
"The core plot revolves around a character's mandatory journey home *for Christmas* to receive a gift, and the entire premise involves him being stranded in a Santa suit. The journey and the race to make it home define the narrative, strongly linking the plot, setting, and resolution to the holiday."
