Good Christmas fairy-tale

I think that Vladimir Mashkov shot quite a good movie worth seeing at the New Year eve. Just remember, for the time being there have been only two movies shown at the New Year eve in Russia - "Karnavalnaya Noch" and "Ironiya Sudby". And now we've got a very simple, kind and touching story about an orphan who finds her father just on December, 31. And not one in fact, but three! The scenery, music, acting and the plot itself are very appropriate and write to the place if I may say so. As for the actors, I'd like to mention Nikolai Fomenko acting as the girl's fiance. He's really superb!
