Christmas stress in the neighborhood: rioting young people provide chaos!

A contemplative Christmas season became a nightmare for Karl Mann and his family. Instead of festive joy, on December 24th they experienced a troubling behavior of rioting young people in their neighborhood in Möellersdorf. "The nuisance began a few days earlier," said Karl Mann. The youngsters heralded the garden door every day and threw eggs against windows, while garbage and even a firecracker landed in the garden. At first the parents saw these actions as harmless pranks, but soon the situation became threatening.

These aggressive incidents throw a bright light on the possible dark side of the Christmas season, which should actually stand for joy and contemplation. In addition to the incident in Möellersdorf, there could be an exciting distraction: the newly staged Christmas classic "The miraculous Christmas of Karl-Bertil Jonsson", which is based on a Swedish bestseller, brings the Christmas feeling back. Hannes Holm's film enchants with loving representations and musical interludes and shows how the young Karl-Bertil recognizes by meeting a poor girl how important it is to help others. This charming story plays in the Stockholm of the 1940s and emphasizes the value of charity and cooperation.

Christmas chaos on the front door

The events in Möellersdorf illustrate how quickly the festive mood can tip over, while the message of "Karl-Bertil Jonsson" spreads hope and humanity. Karl-Bertil dreams of experiencing adventures and helps the needy-an important teaching in times when you often only take care of your own problems. Experience the enchanting journey through time in the past that not only maintains, but also stimulates how to do good together. While some are fighting against the Christmas spirit, the film encourages not to lose sight of the values of friendship and compassion, as the Swedish press praised.
