SANTA IN PARADISE
Newly Written — 2017 — PDF By Request
Category: Family Christmas Fantasy
Log Line: When an Ice Queen freezes the North Pole and threatens the entire world, Santa must turn to the only allies available, the Menehunes – Hawaiian cousins to his own elves, whose tropical magic might just save the day.
High Concept: Frozen meets Santa Claus Is Coming To Town with a dash of Willy Wonka and a South Seas swagger.
Short Summary:
It is 1958 and the first US nuclear sub to make a transit of the North Pole unexpectedly wakes up Poli’ahu, the long forgotten Polynesian Ice Goddess and sister to Pele (Goddess of Volcanoes). Polli’ahu is a little crazy due to Pele having tricked her into freezing her own lover and due to her having been frozen under ice for 700 years. As her first act, Poli’ahu freezes Santa’s village and Santa barely escapes on a floating iceberg that drifts on a South Seas current to Hawaii where he enlists the help of the Menehunes (Hawaiian Elves) and Charlie (the worst kid on the naughty list). Santa attempts to master Hawaiian magic, puts together a new crew of flying dolphins to replace his reindeer, and battles his way through Pele’s lava Tikis to reach the Heart of Mauna Kea, a gemstone whose fiery powers are a match for Poli’ahu. Meanwhile, Poli’ahu is freezing the planet, starting with the world’s oceans, and when Santa rushes to confront her, he finds that the gemstone’s magic may not be enough!
