The Norwegian postal service Posten, of all places, is celebrating LGBTQ rights with a sweet seasonal ad as unique as a snowflake. AdvertisementThe commercial — that feels more like a mini indie movie directed by the likes of Noah Baumbach or Richard Linklater — portrays the budding romance between a man named Harry and Santa over the course of a few Christmases. The Independent Spirit Award-worthy ad, titled “When Harry Met Santa” (an obvious riff on “When Harry Met Sally”), begins with a shirtless Harry going downstairs on Christmas Eve to get a glass of water and catching Santa delivering presents. The next year, a smitten Harry waits up to catch another glimpse of Santa. The postal service’s marketing director, Monica Solberg, told LGBTQ Nation that the ad was made “to celebrate the 50th anniversary” of Norway’s decriminalization of homosexuality.
