action

Nora Kaminski, the doctor without a doctorate , is called by the local postman to the painter and sculptor Roswitha Wing, who collapsed on the stairs. She accompanies Ms. Wing to the Rügen Clinic, where Dr. Heckmann is taken over. Heckmann has known Roswitha Wing since childhood. Actually, the doctor has no time at all, because she has to keep her court appointment in Stralsund . Nora has been sued in a civil case by the family of a passenger on the cruise ship she was working on at the time. She is said to have sold a sexual enhancer to the older, heart-sick Karl Röder . After taking it, he died making love. The other side suddenly comes up with new evidence showing that they have treated the man twice before. Nora was of the opinion, however, that she never had anything to do with Röder before his request, which she rejected, to prescribe him a sexual enhancer. In the trial, the opposing side then presented the witness Fromm, who testified that he was there when Kaminski Röder sold the drug. Nora ventures her outrage over this bold lie in the courtroom, but is reprimanded by the judge. You have three days to deal with the new facts. Nora's son Kai, a law student who is still with his mother on the island, is alarmed and says that if she loses the civil case, it could mean that the criminal case against her, which was discontinued at the time, would be restarted and it would then be about bodily harm Consequence of death . You have to do something. The best thing to do is call his father, a renowned criminal defense attorney. Although Nora actually doesn't want that, as she hasn't had any contact with her ex-husband Peer for years, she makes up her mind to follow her son's advice. Peer Kaminski then decides not to hire a colleague, but to come to Rügen himself to help Nora.

First of all, however, Nora gets into contact with Dr. Heckmann at each other because she disagrees with him about Roswitha Wing's diagnosis. She doesn't believe the patient has leukemia . When Heckmann provoked her particularly strongly, she knocked him down with one blow. The doctor is also worried about her new friend Matthias Butenschön, who after a long illness can no longer hold the house and ship and has to sell to the bank. He also gives up his job in a hardware store because the store manager wanted to compliment his brother Robin, who had Down syndrome , out. Robin had wanted to go to an institution for the handicapped for a long time, but said he could not leave his brother alone. Now you decide together that he is in good hands in such an institution. The separation is difficult for the brothers.

Peer suggests Nora to accept a settlement offer from the other side, which provides for a payment of € 100,000. It is simply the case that she has bad cards, he says, when Nora can not understand why she should pay € 100,000 for something that she did not do at all. Kai, on the other hand, finally explains to his father that he no longer wants to continue his law studies. He doesn't want to become a cynic like him, only to end up with empty hands and have nothing more “except his money”.

After the patient Wing had the bone marrow puncture recommended by Nora , it was confirmed that Nora was correct in her assumption. The patient does not have leukemia. However, after being released home, she quickly feels much worse again. Nora finds out what the cause is, mold growth under the partly suspended ceiling panels. Dr. Heckmann wants to know from Nora whether she will leave the diagnosis to him if he forgets the incident in the hospital. Nora agrees, but makes the condition that he then has to renovate the entire first floor of the Wing, which he will inherit one day anyway.

On the day of the trial, the trial took a decisive turn when Nora asked the witness Fromm how the preparation that she allegedly gave Römer looked like and how he described the expensive original preparation. Since this is not particularly cheap, says the doctor, another means had been used on the ship for years and the one described by the witness was not on board at all. Thereupon the proceedings against the doctor are discontinued. Since Kai also has his share in the course of things, he thinks that maybe he shouldn't give up his law degree completely and then there is also Mandy. When Nora wants to share her relief and joy with Matthias, she finds the apartment that he actually wanted to move into empty. He had already indicated to her that he did not feel equal to her and had to put his life in order first. While Nora is standing at the window with tears in her eyes, her friend Freese is doing much better, Joanna has returned to him after the falling out and he was finally able to explain to her that his mysophobia was the reason for his strange behavior.

Production notes

criticism

The critics of the television magazine TV Spielfilm pointed their thumbs to the side, gave one of three possible points for humor, ambition and tension and said: “Nora's appearances as a doctor omniscient in the Inselklinik are annoying, but her process is halfway exciting. The parallel running story about Fischer Matthias (Shenja Lacher) and Robin (Max Dominik), his brother with Down syndrome, is believable and personable. ”Conclusion:“ Partly shallow, but also has good moments ”.

On the Kino.de page , Tilmann P. Gangloff dealt with the film and said that the new Degeto series with Tanja Wedhorn was "worth seeing, not least thanks to the leading actress". [...] "Because the main character Nora Kaminski has a big heart, 'practice with a sea view' belongs to that genre that could sarcastically be called 'Mother Teresa films'." Marcus Hertneck, who wrote the screenplay, "stands for a form of sophisticated entertainment that is also characterized by subtly packaged intelligent humor ”, and I have“ already helped develop ' Reiff for the island ' for Wedhorn ”. He used "the process for a successful genre mix of doctor and lawyer film, especially since the romantic level can also be dramatized in this way".
