Everything that is right - fathers, daughters, sons is the third part of the German television film series Everything that is right , which is largely set in the Hessian baroque city of Fulda . This time the judge Dr. Lena Kalbach takes care of paternity issues not only professionally but also privately.

action

In her new case, judge Lena Kalbach has to decide a family dispute: Who is little Moritz's father and which family has custody? The starting point of the family dispute was initially a criminal matter. Innkeeper René Dörfler was violent against Cantor Franz Bergen. Bergen then sued for the right of contact with Moritz, whose biological father he is due to a sperm donation.

In her private life, Lena is also about fatherhood. She had not yet told her daughter Nike who her birth father is. Now Nike wants to investigate on its own and find out who its producer is. When Lena notices how important this is to her daughter, she reveals who her biological father is, who at the time didn't want to know anything about his fatherhood and should therefore not play a role in her life. At the same time, Nike's children, Klara and Emanuel, fear losing their father Johannes. This was put in front of the door after an affair by Nike. Although Johannes sincerely regrets this, Nike is sticking to their decision for the time being.

Both the professional and the private paternity case lead to turbulence and to decisions by Lena that go beyond the pure application of paragraphs. So she does not leave the boy's fate untouched, and she wants to persuade the two fathers to come to an agreement. That threatens to fail. Only when Lena can make it clear to everyone involved what the legal dispute would mean for Moritz do the fathers give in. They both decide to be there for Moritz for the benefit of the child. Meanwhile, Lena is considering resigning from her judge's office.

At first glance, it seems unclear what role the lawyer Friedrich Gross plays in all of this. Not only does he represent Bergen in his lawsuit regarding the right of access to his son, but shortly after Lena's transfer he also settled in Fulda. Very soon he leaves no doubt that he came here for Lena, which flatters her. He suggests that they open a law firm together.

Production, locations

The television film is another filmpool production on behalf of ARD Degeto . It was shot from July 7th to August 7th, 2009 in the baroque city of Fulda and the surrounding area, in Cologne and in Frankfurt am Main .

Reviews

Julian Miller fromquotemeter.de criticizes the film as "unimaginative like the title and undifferentiated to the core." One encounters only "banal chatter" and "stupidity". He also says: “Even the Degeto has rarely seen such an unrealistic film. In the new edition of the loose ARD series, mother and daughter sit as judge and prosecutor in the same hearing and it also happens that a little boy just bursts into the middle of the meeting. Lena Kalbach allows things in her courtroom that no ordinary judge in Germany would tolerate. In general, the main protagonist seems to have a complete lack of a healthy attitude towards the German legal system. "

Tittelbach.tv judges this third case of the loose ARD series “Alles was Rechts ist” too much “brushed on thematic consonance to really work. [...] Some not entirely wrong statements are made about life and love. But this open-door race doesn't make a good movie. Conclusion: a moody themed film in which everything looks like a concept. A serial headbirth with no life. Irrelevant service fiction - at best suitable for more mature vintages! "
