As the snow falls outside and Grandpa Nicholas (James Earl Jones) begins to weave his tale of wonder, the captivated children listen to the story of a Christian bishop names Sr. Nick (Hume Cronyn) whose small miracles brought warmth to the heart of believers throughout the Old World. When St. Nick is arrested by the Spanish government on suspicions that he is a spy, a kindly cook named Pete (Flex Alexander) risks his life to free the kindly miracle worker so that he may spread the word of brotherhood across the land. In time Pete is honored with the charge of becoming St. Nick loyal assistant, and together the pair travels to the New World to ensure that the tradition of sharing continues. ~ Jason Buchanan, Rovi
