The story
The film is presented in a series of vignettes, with narration provided by the adult Ralphie Parker.
As a 9-year-old boy living in Northwest Indiana around the late 1930s or early 1940s, all Ralphie wants for Christmas is a Red Ryder Carbine Action 200-shot Range Model air rifle.
On Christmas morning, Ralphie receives some presents that he enjoys, but is disappointed not to find the rifle among them.
