| Trivia | Rauno and Pietari are played by real-life father and son Jorma Tommila and Onni Tommila. See more » |
| Goofs | Even though Korvatunturi and the area in which the movie takes place are well within the Arctic Circle, there is still daylight during Christmas. At that latitude the sun sets weeks before Christmas and doesn't rise again until after New Year. However, although the sun does not rise above the horizon during this time, there is still some daylight. It is not pitch black all day and night. See more » |

Pietari Kontio:
The real Santa was totally different. The Coca-Cola Santa is just a hoax. See more » |
