The Christmas story in the old town of Solothurn with amateur actors and real animals.

Since 2004, on a Sunday in Advent, the center of Solothurn has been transformed into Bethlehem as Roman officials conduct the census. A furious Herod tries to keep an overview. Roman soldiers watch over the town while shepherds with sheep in the field listen to the angel's message. Wise men from the Orient with camels follow a star and in the center is the manger with the Christ child, Mary and Joseph.
