The kids and Uncle Anders want to participate in the hotels competition to become  “The Sunny Family of The Year” but father says no, underlining that “We’re good enough as we are!” He changes his mind, though, when he meets the competing family, and recognize the father as his old school mate, who’s been bullying him for all of their school years, for being physically inadequate. Consequently father enters the competition with all his might and heart, and what should have been a friendly contest, ends up being a fight for honor and redemption, and it’s only by the loving and innovative intervention from the kids, that father in the ends realizes that the family really doesn’t need to go to any of such extremes. They are actually good enough as they are!

Father of Four - On the Sunny Side!

11-year-old Katinka lives alone with her three siblings. Tristan, 15, Kirk, 9, Petra, 6, and the parrot Captain Good Mood in an apartment in Silverstreet. Here, they can decide entirely for themselves when to go to bed, if they feel like brushing their teeth, and there's no one telling them they have to do homework. That's how it's been ever since their mother mysteriously disappeared a year ago. But when their always absent parents start to arouse suspicion from the school principal, Mr. Moth, the four siblings devise a clever plan to avoid being discovered and sent to an orphanage: They will hire a housekeeper. When they choose the colorful Miss Nelly from Vollsmose - a male housekeeper in a skirt and high heels - the plan changes completely.
