action

The writer Bernd Falkenhagen is appointed by his publisher, director Werner. Falkenhagen believes that his novel Weltenwende made a big hit, but Werner has to disappoint him. He won't misplace the book. The story is well written, but he expects something different from its author, an everyday story that happens to every normal person in life. This is exactly what people expect: They want to read something that they can find themselves in. Werner gives Falkenhagen an advance, and Falkenhagen immediately begins to write his everyday story, which also includes the publisher Werner, who will be called Schroedter here, in an encoded form.

Bernd sits down with friends, neighbors and acquaintances, among them the painter Herbert Winkler and the sports teacher Susi Liebig, who will also appear in everyday history by other names. Susi writes down all of Bernd's thoughts. At the center of the events of his story is the encounter between his novelist and a young lady named Anneliese, whom he meets during a rain shower and who accompanies her safely home with his umbrella. His novel publisher Schroedter also turns out to be an adversary in everyday history who rejects his novel. When Roman-Bernd Schroedter also sees Anneliese at the side, who tries to persuade the publisher to publish Buch-Bernd's work, the author of the everyday story also becomes jealous. When he makes a scene about it for her, Anneliese separates from Roman-Bernd and resumes her medical studies. Two years later, the two meet again: Anneliese has finished her studies and Bernd has become a successful author. Now nothing stands in the way of the happy ending of the two characters in the novel

Bernd has finished his everyday story, and this is enthusiastically received and published by Director Werner. On the way home, in the rain, he discovers a young lady who looks just like his novel Anneliese. But this is where Roman ends and reality begins: Anneliese gets into the car with a man he does not know and lets herself be driven home.
