For Disneyland Paris, Christmas is the highlight, a celebration that begins almost a year in advance! In 2017, the park celebrated its 25th anniversary. This milestone was marked by a year filled with events designed to dazzle visitors, including several new additions: parades, shows, and entertainment. But how do you reconcile organizing these festivities with welcoming nearly 40,000 visitors every day? For a year, we went behind the scenes at Europe's number one theme park. We were given exclusive access to share the daily lives of 55,000 employees, stunt performers, dancers, but also gardeners, artisans, chefs, salespeople, and even Princes and Princesses! They all shared their secrets with us. What methods are behind the Disneyland magic? Who is behind the grand parade, the dishes at Remy's bistro, or the bushes in Alice's Garden? What does CastMemberland, the secret city of employees, look like?

Everyone thinks of Santa Claus as a magical figure without flaws, but the men who keep his legend alive, real-bearded professional Santas, are nothing like the jolly ol' Saint Nick we've all grown up knowing. In reality, the mall Santa in your cherished children's photo has problems just like the rest of us. Even the jolliest of men fall victim to divorce, job loss, insecurity and even the occasional hangover. 'I Am Santa Claus' is a documentary that follows the lives of five real-bearded professional Santa Clauses as they anticipate and prepare the coming holiday season while showing them for who they actually are flawed, flesh and blood men who feel an overbearing responsibility to protect the integrity of the spotless, untarnished reputation of the "Red Suit."
