action
The single mother Anna Schröder moved with her son Tobi from Berlin to a Brandenburg village in order to have a new future as a waitress. But because her boss Walther wants to go to Mallorca , he threatens to close his party service. So that she does not become unemployed, she agrees to buy his company from him. This is where the problems begin, because in addition to a broken fridge, a broken doorbell, enormous debts and a Tobi who feels neglected, her cousin Sophie also sends her widowed great-uncle Jakob. However, it is of no help when it comes to relieving Anna of her job. Rather, he just watches when Tobi takes Anna's car and has an accident with it. The policeman Thomas, who has already flirted with Anna frequently, willingly offers his help, keeps Tobi's secret, takes care of the car and, as a thank you, lets Anna invite him to dinner later.
He gets closer to her and finds out during a trip to the lake that Tobi's father had died long before that. But that's not true. Tobi's father Peter lived in California for years and successfully built shopping centers and theme parks. Together with Christian, he is now trying to build a new shopping center in Munich with the investor Hajo von der Mühlenstock for 250 million euros. However, since Hajo is a very conservative person and wants to convince himself of Peter's suitability for the family, Peter now seeks Anna and Tobi. Although Anna doesn't want to know anything from him, she inevitably accepts his help to take care of Tobi while she tries to work off her debts and land new orders. Peter behaves well the following week, taking care of all the broken appliances in her house, replacing old furniture and inviting her to dinner later. Anna is so taken by his charm that she excuses his previous behavior and begins to fall in love with him again. Only in doing so it excludes Thomas, who tried so hard for her and feels left out.
But Peter isn't as perfect as he pretends to be either. His work is most important to him. Tobi also feels that when he is not brought to an important football game by him and wants to cover the 20 km to Wiesental with the Bonanza bike that Thomas gave him as a gift. Although he is picked up by Thomas on the way and taken to the football game and Peter also apologizes, Anna realizes how irresponsible he is with his own son. When she finally accompanies him to a party from the Mühlenstücks and learns that Peter only has to pretend an ideal family world for the successful conclusion of the contract, she is finally disappointed with him and throws him out of the house, despite all of Peter's expressions of love. Not Peter was the right man for her, but Thomas, who always took care of Tobi. She apologizes to him and after a long hesitation he accepts this and gives her a second chance.
criticism
"A romantic comedy set in a rural setting that entertains solidly and appropriately for the genre and questions role clichés in a fun way."
“Do not be surprised if what you expect usually happens in this romantic comedy from the series" Lauter great women ". Because director Helmut Metzger pulls out almost all known registers of rural comedy. One highlight, however: Markus Knüfken as a nice village policeman. "
