action
Senior Teacher Dr. Klaus Michael Dirkhoff once taught as an art teacher at a girls' high school in a small town. Due to his unconventional and direct manner, the popular timpanist had a stone in the board with his students, who only called him “Stips”. He reacted to cheeky sayings, jokes and pranks in a completely relaxed manner, and since he is also quite attractive, all of his students at the Lyceum were naturally in love with him. It's been a long time since school and the schoolgirls of yore went their own way. But now the adult and partly already married women of today are becoming the girls of yesteryear again, because happy news is going around: Stips is back in town!
He was gone for eight years, but the feelings of many a Stips admirer have not changed. Dr. Dirkhoff is now widowed and some of his students are beginning to regret that they are no longer free. The beloved drummer of yore causes emotional confusion just by his presence and makes the female hormones go crazy, which has a highly damaging effect on the marriages of the young women, especially since some of them are stealing blatant stips. In the end, the attractive end-forties ends up with the ex-student, of all people, who at the time was one of those who was more reluctant than others to reveal their affection for him. This woman, Regine Wülfing, with whom he fell in love, will, Stips is quite certain, be a good mother to his two children, who are now half-orphans.

Reviews
In Der Spiegel one could read: "Director Carl Froelich proves that even as a 76-year-old you should keep your hands off pre-world war reminiscences."
The film service ruled: "The nostalgic story from the Wilhelmine era is the last film by German cinema pioneer Carl Froelich."
