A psychological horror film that weaponizes Christmas cheer and childhood innocence, using a possessed mascot suit to explore fractured identity and creeping madness.

A struggling actor gets a holiday season job as a Christmas character in a plush suit to promote the hottest toy of the year, Pooka; he slowly develops two personalities—one when he's in the suit and one that's outside it.
