It is New Year's morning for Petronela. After a strenuous 12-hour night shift at the hotel, she has finally finished work. Now she needs to get home quickly and celebrate the New Year with her boyfriend. He is waiting patiently at home and watching a hockey game from Canada, on TV. It is very cold and it has been so for several days, but now snow has also started to fall. At minus 12 degrees Celsius the Fiat wants to be freed from the snow and ice that covers it, before it can be started. Then comes the exciting moment: Will the old Fiat now start easily? Petronela has already had massive problems getting it to crank in the last few days. Has the battery still got enough strength to start the stubborn small motor?
