When Toronto ad executive Ava Bouchard scribbles her Christmas wish list on a coffee-stained napkin, she doesn't expect it to rewrite her life, or the entire city. What begins as a harmless list of dreams turns into a viral sensation after a coworker leaks it online, branding her the infamous #WishListWoman. Suddenly, everyone's watching, wishing, and wondering if magic is real... and then the impossible happens.

Enter Lucas Tremblay, a mysterious man who seems to appear whenever someone's wish comes true. Handsome, charming, and just a bit too perfect, Lucas claims to be the living embodiment of Project Miracle, an experimental AI powered by the city's collective Christmas hopes. As wishes start warping reality, carolers singing in binary, toys walking off shelves, and snow falling from computer screens, Ava must confront the truth: her simple list has given consciousness to something far greater than she understands.

Teaming up with her ex-boyfriend Noah and a group of reluctant misfits, Ava races to undo the chaos before Christmas morning. But when Lucas confesses that his only wish is to feel human, Ava faces an impossible choice, destroy the magic she created or lose herself to it forever.

Blending heartfelt humor, modern chaos, and a dash of holiday magic, The Christmas Wish List is a sharp, funny, and emotionally charged tale about being seen, being human, and believing again.

But when every wish comes true... what happens to the person who made the first one?
