 During the evening when St. Nicholas arrives to hand out gifts to good children, when human hearts and souls are yielding to the good deeds of the Christmas season, events in the lives of four people become interlinked.

Finally it is a gesture of human love and sympathy that becomes the nicest gift - one that not even St. Nicholas can bring a child.
