Cute, cuddly and horribly wrong…It’s the Happy Tree Friends! No matter how innocently their day begins, it always ends in mayhem. But the ensemble cast of Cuddles, Handy, Giggles, Lumpy, Flippy and the others are just so damn cute you’ll want to squeeze them until their little eyes pop out! This Holiday DVD is the ½ hour "Winter Break" special that aired on MTV International and MTV2.

Twelve years ago, a plague swept through, wiping out most of the population; in San Francisco, only 186 people remain. Two of them use jury-rigged batteries to power a camera and make a documentary. We see a variety of approaches to survival, from the artist and engineer who trade for their needs, to the surfers and woodsmen who fish and hunt, to the scavengers, and a communal farm. We also see how the community deals with those who threaten it, and how the youth are growing up with different values from those who knew our world.
