action

After a choir rehearsal in the church, Lisbeth discovers a basket with a baby in it, takes it to the yard and takes care of it as long as the youth welfare office does not have time to take the child when it is in good hands due to understaffing. But the baby she calls Ben is sick, has a high fever and has to go to the hospital. The mother is Julia, whose sister Marlies had taken the child to church unnoticed because she wanted to get back to her friend Markus Hausmann, whom she had left when she found out that she was pregnant because she had cheated on him and knew that she cannot have children from Markus, which doctors had already discovered years ago. So Julia thinks that Felix is ​​the father.

Felix is ​​still quite young and is an extreme athlete on skis. He works in the same company as Julia, which belongs to Markus, who doesn't like Felix's sport because of the high risk of injury. Lilli Gruber wants to show Felix that she is also good, but sprains her ankle in the process.

Bergdoktor Martin Gruber found out that Marlies Leitner brought the baby to church, but she does not want to reveal who the mother is. But the mother is important because the baby is in mortal danger. When Marlies can convince Julia of this and takes her to the hospital, it turns out that she does not have the same blood type as the child. So she has to ask her father, whereupon she see Felix and tell him everything. At first he is very surprised, but then agrees, but Felix does not have the same blood type as the child, so he is not the father.

It turns out that Markus is the father of the child and that months of hiding would not have been necessary.

Reviews

“In addition to all the action, the film still finds time for many nostalgic Christmas and winter impressions. The excellent lighting with lots of candles and the excellent camera by Tobias Platow and Aljoscha Hennig contribute to this. The craftsmanship is flawless and the actors are obviously happy to be involved.

In addition, the film skilfully focuses on Christmas topics such as children, responsibility, forgiveness and structures it in the course of the plot so cleverly that it maintains its tension until the last minute. "
