It's been decades since Richard Steiner turned his back on his hometown on Lake Tegernsee to pursue a career in Berlin. Over the years he has built up a successful law firm as a commercial lawyer and leads a sophisticated life with a charming wife, a luxurious apartment - and an attractive lover. One day, however, Richard is confronted with his long-forgotten roots: his uncle surprisingly inherited a hotel in his home village. Richard reluctantly drives to the Tegernsee with his nature-loving wife Christina. While Christina is enthusiastic about the traditional house and its charming employees at first sight, Richard would like to return to Berlin immediately. Only when a property speculator who wants to demolish the hotel and build a brand new golf course offers him three million euros does his interest in the inheritance jump from zero to one hundred. There's only one catch: his uncle has decreed that Richard must personally manage the hotel for four weeks before it becomes his property. So Richard changes out of necessity for a traditional jacket and tries to be a charming host. What he doesn't suspect: Old Hannes, receptionist and "good soul" of the house, has hatched a plan together with Christina and secretly mobilized the villagers as holiday guests in order to fool the unmotivated Richard into believing that the hotel business is flourishing. Lo and behold, Richard soon starts to like his new job more and more. Beautiful childhood memories are awakened, the office stress falls away from him, and the marriage with Christina seems to experience a second spring in the idyllic mountain world. However, the sale project is becoming more and more distant. But then Richard's bitchy lover Annett surprisingly turns up at Tegernsee. When Christina catches them both in flagrante delicto, the situation escalates - the marriage between Richard and Christina and the future of the hotel are threatened. But Richard doesn't give up that easily.
