Storyline
| Plot Summary |
Shortly before Christmas, a mismatched German couple is driving not-completely-voluntarily through Poland in a ratty old car. Square lawyer-to-be Max Lowenberg investigates a formerly-German property; constantly-gabbling Anna just wants her car to be stolen. Both are surprised by Polish hosts and Santa Clauses. They become closer to their Polish neighbors--and each other--with help from hearty hospitality and lots of vodka. |
