Story
Forty-year-old crane operator Mike (Matthias Koeberlin) is accustomed to shouldering a great deal of responsibility. He wants to be everything to his ten-year-old daughter, Nora (Maya Morgeneyer): dad, best friend and comforter. However, he overestimates his abilities. In an attempt to get his burnout under control, he decides to go on a parent-child retreat. At the former castle hotel, Mike, accustomed to the male-dominated world of construction sites, finds himself in uncharted territory. What weighs even more heavily on him, though, is that he is alone among women! Not all of the participants are happy about the new male arrival, either.
