The journey of Ebenezer Scrooge

The story is set in London and it is 24 December, i.e. Christmas. Like all people - but especially children - people here are looking forward to the most wonderful holiday of the year, when people give each other presents, sing together, are merciful and happy.

Except for one: the ice-cold businessman and rich miser Ebenezer Scrooge, who describes Christmas as a festival of waste and humbug and whose heart will not be softened by anyone even on this evening.

But that night he receives an unexpected visitor. To his horror, it is the ghost of his deceased business partner Marley, who wants to make him a better person, but to no avail.

Shortly afterwards, a mysterious angel and another ghost appear and accompany Scrooge on a journey into the past, where, among other things, he sees himself as a little boy who knew neither greed nor money...
