Josefine’s birthday is on Christmas Eve, and she’s getting pretty tired of that. She decides to move Christmas and gets help from a magical nativity scene that sends her back to the time when Jesus was her own age. She becomes friends with Jesus, but a whole series of questions now arise: What about her classmate Oskar, who wants to be more than friends? And who is the mysterious Thorsen, the owner of the time machine?

Anders is 10 years old and has one great passion: diving. He is going on holiday to Greece with his dad, whose behaviour is erratic due to his heavy drinking. They are secretive about their holiday, because the social welfare would stop them going if they knew. Only Grandmother knows. In Greece, Anders takes up his diving, but Dad isn't able to keep himself sober, and consequently Anders has nobody to turn to.
