This is a short - at fifteen minutes it's actually very short - behind the scenes look at how the classic Charles M. Schulz animated special "A Charlie Brown Christmas," his first real special based on his legendary Peanuts comic strip, came to be made.
There are a couple of interviews with Schulz's associates included in the short which provide much of the details, context and commentary for the short.
I had no idea how important Coca Cola was (as the short film's sponsors) to the project coming to fruition, and other behind the scenes details and trivia were pretty neat to learn as well. Kids will love it to, and at such a short run time they'll actually be able to sit through it :)
