Antonin Nowak, a stressed labor director, is happy for a Christmas with his relatives, for a bit of rest and distance from everyday life. But what he had hoped for did not come true. Because Christmas is also the festival of pleasant surprises, but the "surprising" things that Nowak expects this year are a tough test for the man who believed he could weather the storms of life tempted to take drastic actions.
