At the webpage of Cirkus Xanti the following, among other things, is written about Winter Sun:

"Winter Sun by Cirkus Xanti is a Christmas story from the world of the trolls.

Every year through the dark times the Troll Master collects sun gold from the heart of the Earth. Angels bring the sun gold to the sun, and earth returns from the darkness, re-entering the light. Winter Sun shines and the trolls can celebrate Christmas. But despite his important function, the Troll Master is unhappy.

For many years he has thought that his only daughter was eaten by a bear. But this is not true! The goblins finally allow Little Multe Troll to leave the mountain where she has been to find her father, the Troll Master, but when she gets to his secret spot in the woods, she discovers that he is under a spell by the evil Shadow. Shadow wants to steal the magical sun gold, so that Earth disappears into eternal darkness, and the Shadows can take over the world. Aided by little trolls and angels of light little Multe enters the battle against evil. If she succeeds, she will finally celebrate Christmas with her father, and see the winter sun shine again!

Winter Sun is a refinement of The Troll Ring, and the ensemble consisted of Norwegian actors and international circus artists."
