action

Three brothers couldn't be more different: Ernst Stadler is a successful award- winning chef with his own gourmet restaurant. His older brother Ludwig, on the other hand, is also a cook, but is currently in prison. Adrian, the youngest of the three, is a male nurse and gay. When her mother suffers a heart attack, they go to the hospital in Leipzig together. Shortly after their arrival, the mother dies. She had decreed that she wanted to be buried in Pomßen in Saxony . There you will find a reference to Wickerl's biological father. They make up Ernstl's father in Hungary. He had once abandoned the pregnant mother. Adrian is not a brother in the biological sense, but was adopted by his mother as a foundling. Nevertheless they come to the conclusion: "And the three of me are still brothers" .
