Jimmy and the Star Angel

On Christmas Eve, 10-year-old Jimmy and his older sister Samantha are magically pulled into their family Christmas tree — a wondrous, enchanted world inhabited by the very ornaments they’ve hung for years. But the tree isn’t as joyful as it once was. Cracks have formed — literally and emotionally — as old ornaments from the "Empty Side" scheme to saw off branches and dismantle the tree itself. At the center of this uprising is Scrimshaw, a once-proud ornament who feels forgotten, discarded, and broken. As Jimmy and Samantha traverse the tree, they encounter a vibrant cast of characters: tap-dancing snowmen, a bumbling western sheriff ornament, a wise and whimsical lighthouse, a gumshoe secret agent named Anaconda, and Pockets — a down-on-his-luck clown who knows how to fix things, even broken hearts. Along the way, the siblings are separated, captured, and ultimately inspired — confronting their own grief over their father’s passing and rediscovering the joy they thought was lost. As sunrise nears, Jimmy and Samantha risk becoming ornaments forever — unless they can reach the Star Angel at the top of the tree before the magic fades. In a climactic finale bursting with music, heart, and hope, Jimmy learns that honoring the past doesn't mean staying stuck in sorrow — it means holding onto the memories that shine brightest. Jimmy and the Star Angel is a dazzling, heartwarming animated musical in the tradition of The Polar Express and Inside Out — a timeless holiday adventure that speaks to loss, legacy, and the magic of memory.
