“Profession: Father Frost” is a documentary film about people who, every December, become living symbols of the New Year. Performers, animators, and enthusiasts put on the Ded Moroz costume not for the stage, but for emotions — children’s smiles, adults’ belief, and a brief feeling of warmth during the coldest time of the year.
The film reveals the behind-the-scenes reality of this profession: preparation, inner rituals, fatigue, and the responsibility toward those who still wait for a miracle. Through simple human stories, the film shows that culture and tradition live not in official decorations, but in personal choice — to come, to congratulate, to support.
This is a film about a holiday created by the hands of ordinary people. And about where the New Year is truly born.
