CGiii Comment

The happy gay couple DAVID (Max von Pufendorf) and Khaled (Omar El-Saeidi) would love to marry publicly - if there weren’t Khaled’s arab family - especially his homophobic father ALEDRISSI (Ramin Yazdani) as well as David's pseudo orthodox jewish acting mother LEA (Maren Kroymann). As suddenly the pregnant SARAH (Franziska Brandmeier) is claiming that the child was David’s, everything seems to get out of control. Misunderstandings, outing fears, a possible paternity and a gallery insolvency are driving these contradictory families into an emotional chaos and beyond their borders.
