Forget Hallmark, Netflix, and Hulu — this year’s most romantic and moving Christmas love story is coming to you courtesy of Norway’s postal service. Yes, you read that right.
For the past two years, it has been producing holiday advertisements that have quickly become a beloved part of the country’s Christmas season, and this year’s entry may end up making it one of yours as well.
The nearly four-minute ad, titled When Harry Met Santa, plays more like a short film. It begins with one man’s chance encounter with Saint Nick, and the two have an instant spark. The ad then follows their growing connection over subsequent holidays.
At one visit, Santa tells Harry, “You snore. I’ll be back next year.” Then the next year, Santa tells him, “I’ve got many gifts to deliver. I’ll be back next year. Do I look nice?”
The ad keeps building to when Harry confesses his feelings — via a note to the North Pole, naturally — and Santa being able to spend more quality time with him, thanks to the postal service. And there’s a kiss. While there are (sadly) no subtitles, the meaning and sentiment are very clear.
The caption at the end says, “In 2022, it will be 50 years since it became legal to love whomever you want in Norway.”
