The new movie is described by Parade as Ralphie attempting to reconnect with his inner child and reconcile with the death of his father by returning to Cleveland St. with his new family. He is looking to give his kids in his hometown the same type of magical Christmas he once had. During the trip, Ralphie will encounter childhood friends and make new ones.
