What happens

Barbie in a Christmas Carol is a 2008 animated Christmas film directed by William Lau and written by Elise Allen. Produced by Rainmaker Entertainment, it was given a limited theatrical release by Kidtoon Films on November 1, 2008 and was later released to DVD 3 days later. It premiered on British and Irish television via its Nick Jr. regional variant on December 23, 2011. The 14th entry in the Barbie film series, it is based on Charles Dickens's 1843 novel and features the voice of Kelly Sheridan as Barbie, with Morwenna Banks as Eden Starling (a female version of Ebenezer Scrooge played by Barbie). It is the 2nd Christmas-themed Barbie film, following Barbie in the Nutcracker, despite being marketed as Barbie’s "First Holiday Movie" on the DVD cover. (from Wikipedia, CC BY-SA)
