A lost soul is confronted by a Christmas that's forgotten how to love. As he wanders through a lonely yuletide landscape, he searches for any trace of holiday magic. The goodness we all believe in. And when he finds it in the kindness of others, he rediscovers his place in the world, and the man he's truly supposed to be.

Ratko tells the tale of the likable scion of an evil foreign despot as he navigates his unique way at an American university.
