In a small Swedish town, parts of the municipal council gather in the female chairman's living room to nominate and elect this year's Lucia. They are looking for a moral girl as a role model for the city's youth. Unfortunately, all the nominees turn out to have "corpses in the closet" and the congregation is suddenly left with no choice. Everyone is appalled by the decline of the youth and the situation seems insoluble. Then a bomb is dropped. One of the meeting participants suggests that you choose a boy for Lucia instead. Then there is an inviolable candidate; Albert Herring. Said and done. What they do not know is that this election will turn the whole village upside down. Nothing will ever be the same again!
