action
Christiane Borck, who still goes to school as a primary school graduate, absolutely wants to support financially her old father who was suffering and starving in the early post-war period. She would like to give him an urgently needed spa stay. That's why Christiane got the idea to start as a spokeswoman for "Christl Bark" at radio. But there is a catch: it should go on the air when, of all things, it should go to school. In addition, two of her radio colleagues threaten to fall apart because of her, as both seem to have had an eye on the brisk young lady.
But Christine proves to be a true master in solving all problems that, thanks to her commitment, finally vanish into thin air: The two colleagues, the radio director Axel Robert and the sports reporter Thomas Schott, make up again, the father can finally start his cure and then, as a retired captain, return to the command bridge of a Rhine steamer, and even the lively, widowed aunt Florentine Kneefke experiences late luck: She is paired up and hooks up with the married Sepp Sedlmeyer, a former heavyweight champion in boxing, including the inn. Christiane herself has found the man for life and is getting married.

Reviews
Paul Hühnerfeld wrote on the occasion of the Hamburg premiere in Die Zeit : “'Tomorrow [sic!] Everything will be better', a hopeful title for a hopeful film. The aim of the director (Arthur Maria Rabenalt) and the screenwriter (WP Zibaso) is to let a 'rubble-free' and completely unproblematic story pass on the screen. Because life is not only difficult and hung with profound problems, but just as often it is easy, moody and full of happy coincidences, if you only know how to hold onto them. The way a good daughter helps her sick father in this film and also becomes a radio star and a happy love affair is full of freshness, without any sentimentality and not even unbelievable. (...) Certainly, at some points in this film, for which Werner Bochmann wrote the music, one would have wished for more original ideas, but - 'Tomorrow is better' - is once again emphatically promised in this film at the end. "
“The (due to the time exaggerated) optimistic story of a young girl who, through success at work, not only raises money for her father in need of health care, but also ends up happily in the port of marriage. (...) Undemanding, at least tolerably played film with all the characteristics of early German post-war production. "
"The touching story of the noble-hearted little daughter who brings money for her father in need of health care and who gets married happily at the end of the day is fun."
