action
Master baker Friedrich Schiller from Einbeck leads a harmonious family life with his wife Martha, with whom he is about to celebrate their silver wedding anniversary, and nine children, and he is always there for his growing daughters, be it with lovesickness or tricky homework. He is proud that he is to become a board member of the bakers' guild .
On a trip home he reads up the wife of the manufacturer Küppers, Lollo Küppers, and drives her to her hunting lodge. As a thank you, she invites him to a drink . After the mood between the two of them became increasingly relaxed, he showed Lollo how to bake pies. The boozy mood contributes to the fact that Schiller, tipsy as he is, spends the night in the hunting lodge. The next morning he can only vaguely remember the previous evening.
Despite Schiller's attempts to keep the incident secret, it does come to light, through his daughter Thea, of all people, who writes for a newspaper as a volunteer and also reports on the private lives of well-known personalities. She intends to publish Lollo Küppers' diary about her lover. Schiller's attempt to keep his name out of the matter with the help of a lawyer fails. After the silver wedding anniversary celebrations, he confesses to his wife, full of suspicions, of the incident, but assures her that nothing worse has happened.
When Martha Schiller called on director Küppers and assured him that her husband would under no circumstances have a love affair with a married woman, Lollo Küppers assured her that nothing serious had happened that evening. Back home, Martha Schiller can reassure Friedrich that Lollo Küppers only wanted to make her husband jealous with the diary in question and that he had no untrue stories to fear about himself in the newspaper.
After the couple's two eldest daughters celebrate a double wedding, Schiller looks after his grandchildren with enthusiasm, after initially being happy that he no longer has to worry about so many children.

criticism
“Folksy family entertainment, in the depiction of the cheerful everyday family life, emotionally staged, only moderately funny. Heinz Erhardt sets some comedically attractive accents. "
"A baker's supposed fling stirs up a lot of flour, but as it says in the final song:" A happy family is the most beautiful thing in the world / happiness is only available for love, not for money ". Perfect world comedy. "
