Dad Got Grounded

The 59-year-old flight captain Paul is proud to have made it to the top in his dream job under his own steam. Shortly before his last ascent in the prestigious Airbus 747-8, he has to deal with his only weak point, which the self-confident achiever has been able to generously admit to himself: as a husband and father, Paul does not have that, as his two failed relationships with two children show same sense of responsibility as in the cockpit. Only flying is nicer - this motto also applies to starting his third family with the much younger Susanne. It was actually agreed that Paul would take early retirement and take over the upbringing of their son Franz so that she could get going after parental leave. When Paul quits this deal for the sake of the 747-8, Susanne dumps him with the five-year-old without warning and issues an ultimatum. Now, of all times, his two older children are unannounced at the door. Sensitive student Jonas is unhappily in love and rebellious student Tabea opposes her mother's boarding school plans. Both insist that their father finally takes time for them. Paul would like to send an SOS, but this time his ex-wives Martina and Karin won't help. Completely on his own, he now has to learn what is important when it comes to being a father.
