  • Billy lives with his three uncles, the Vasili brothers, who run the most famous toy shop in town, where they make, inspect and add magic to every toy. One day, when a group of poor children led by little Lotty do not dare enter the shop, Billy follows them with the help of fireflies and discovers that there are children who have never played with toys. Determined to change this injustice, he persuades his uncles to make toys for every child in the city in a single night and distribute them using their magical sleigh, the Yule 3000, pulled by two propeller-powered reindeer. But when he forgets the carrots the reindeer need to see in the dark, the mission seems impossible – until Lotty releases thousands of fireflies that illuminate the entire city. Billy manages to deliver all the presents and gives Lotty a special music box. Meanwhile, the Vasili brothers’ toy shop now hides a mysterious door at the back, leading to a workshop where little helpers continue making toys for all the children of the world.
