Schwarzbrot in Thailand

Ottmar hands his Hamburg bakery to daughter Janina, retiring after 40 years with his wife to compatriot Beinle's fancy seniors residence in Pattaya, Thailand, which also provides private nursing as required. She waited decades to enjoy free time, exploring another culture - but he just wants rest, missing enterprise, while the demented retired judge Lobinger scares him. Tourist package deal groups host Max convinces Ottmar to finance, behind his wife's back (the spouses suspects each-other of an affair), a 'real German bakery', but once the contract is signed, the scammer disappears with all Ottmar's savings. With their marriage near breaking, Ottmar and Tanja must seek help and adapt.

Eltern allein zu Haus: Die Schröders

The graduation ceremony of their son Max is no longer a big excitement for Sabine and Bernd Schröder - after all, they have already successfully brought two older sons through high school. Nonetheless, when the youngest offspring moves out, a new chapter in life begins: They finally have plenty of time for each other and common dreams. At least that's the beautiful theory. Sabine and Bernd have to face the truth: unnoticed by the hustle and bustle of the family, they have drifted apart. Where the offspring once provided common ground, there is suddenly a yawning emptiness. The fact that other couples feel the same way after their children have moved out gives little consolation. And while Bernd continues to bury his head in the sand and hopes for the success of the "sit out" principle, Sabine gets serious. She gives Bernd an ultimatum. Because one thing is clear to them: just continuing like this is out of the question.
