Once during a party two friends get an idea: let's exchange wives...

Despite being 45, Werner still likes putting on the style and enjoys being a womanizer, who usually ends up in bed with the female guests that stay at the hostel in which he temporarily works. But then, Werner has to learn to take on responsibility. When he was 18, he and his former girlfriend Tine, had a daughter called Julia, who is a mother herself now. Whenever she is in desperate need of a babysitter, she approaches Werner, who then grudgingly accepts. But Werner has discovered that this new "job" is a real godsend, as when he takes his granddaughter to the playground, he is a great hit with the ladies. He especially likes Kathie, who comes there with her little son Finn. Of course, he can't let her know that he is a granddad and so he says that he is Zora's father… and to Julia's surprise - but also joy - he wants to babysit Zora as often as possible.

It comes quite unexpectedly from Tom, Gisela's ten-year-old grandson: Grandma needs a worshiper! The unusual plan works. The anonymous love letters, written by Matthias himself, enchant his mother. But when she wants to meet the unknown, all the dizziness threatens to fly up.

Christine Neubauer takes on an unfamiliar role for "Maria, Argentina and the Weißwurst": She plays a rugged perfectionist, who secludes herself from life behind her butcher's apron. Only in the distance does the Urbayerin manage to free herself from her own constraints and to take the heart into her own hands. Carlos Lobo in the role of the proud interpreter and Valentino Fortuzzi as a difficult nephew offer parole. Before the three pull together to bring the white sausage on Argentine plates, they must first gather together in the Culture Clash comedy by director Markus Herling.
