This theatrical work, part of a series that addresses the consequences of alcohol abuse, focuses on the struggles of a poor family during the Christmas season. The play aims to highlight the impact of alcoholism on personal relationships and the broader community, likely aiming to promote sobriety and a sense of social responsibility. The story unfolds on Christmas Eve in Turku, depicting the desperate situation of Erkki Häyrinen, a man who has succumbed to alcoholism, much to the detriment of his wife Annaliisa and their child. As the play opens, Annaliisa anxiously awaits her husband's return, worried about their lack of resources to celebrate the holidays. Throughout the act, interactions reveal the family's plight, including the effects of Erkki's drinking on their well-being and relationships. As Erkki returns home, intoxicated and aggressive, conflicts arise with his wife and a friend, Mari, who tries to intervene. The arrival of a charitable visitor, Neiti Hyvönen, brings a turning point, as her compassion instills hope and prompts Erkki to reflect on his choices. The play concludes on a note of redemption, with Erkki vowing to reform and embrace sobriety, illustrating a powerful message about the potential for change and the importance of community support.
