The Shine of the Stars (alternative title Engelchen Flieg 2 ) is a German TV drama from 2007 about the life of a family and a single mother, each with a severely disabled child. The film was shot in Munich .
action
The physically severely disabled Pauline lives with her brother Patrick and her parents Hanna and Michael in a house that is not wheelchair accessible. When father Michael Koller suffers another herniated disc while lifting his daughter, the family has to move to a wheelchair-accessible apartment. The Anselm Neuner family and his single mother Nina Neuner met on a cure. Anselm has muscular dystrophy and is therefore already in a wheelchair. Michael Koller puts his marriage at risk when he allows Nina Neuner's advances. In the meantime, Veronica Grossmann (played by Margret Völker ) lives with her two spastically paralyzed twins in the new apartment. This only leads to problems because the neighbors cannot make friends with handicapped children and start a signature campaign for the Koller family to move out. When Anselm dies, a world collapses for his mother, but Pauline helps her cope.

Reviews
"Convincingly played television drama with an abundance of entanglements and aggravations that spreads optimism in a calm way."
