Let’s face the facts, Santa isn’t a young man anymore.
He’s been in the Christmas business for a few hundred years, but he’s still hustling. And he does it exceptionally well. Despite a few minor ailments and maybe carrying a little extra weight.
Is it his big heart that keeps him going? Or deep motivation for his unique international work? Or perhaps the great team of elves by his side? The real secret to his health might finally be revealed now that the Finnish healthcare company Terveystalo has announced they are the official health partner of Santa Claus.

This heartwarming film by TBWA\Helsinki, Directors Guild Helsinki and director Pete Riski walks us through an ordinary Christmas morning, as a bearded man prepares for a new day. In the background, we hear a voiceover discussing health issues related to a certain patient. It’s only when we realise the man is Santa Claus, gearing up for another Christmas shift, that we learn the voiceover is his medical report from Terveystalo.
The conclusion? Despite his age, the patient is in surprisingly good shape.

Beautiful music, sensitive cinematography, and elegant editing do therest. While the story is simple, its emotional impact, paired with the message, is powerful.
