Schaumküsse

Schaumküsse

The life is wonderful, is not it? For Lilly Heiden, the sky over Berlin is currently full of violins. No wonder: the likeable rental cook succeeded in making the leap into self-employment brilliantly, the order situation in her newly founded catering company could hardly be better. And to make happiness perfect, Lilly and her boyfriend, the smart sports presenter Christian, will soon be moving into a huge, fantastically beautiful old building in a prime location. However, a small attack of nausea in your catering kitchen is the first indication that the supposed idyll will not last. A test then brings certainty: Lilly is pregnant. After the first shock, the maternal instinct sets in with her very quickly. But unfortunately Christian does not react very fatherly to the news of the offspring - the die-hard professional youngsters are gripped by the sheer baby panic. Deeply disappointed, Lilly dumps him. With that, of course, the planned move also fell through, and so from one day to the next the mother-to-be is not only without a friend, but in the worst case also without a place to stay. Fortunately, a new apartment can be found quickly - and a new admirer in her new neighbor and landlord Ulli König. He courted Lilly in a charming way and quickly gave her to understand that he would also like to take her with her child. This in turn triggers slight panic attacks in Lilly: How should she know what she really wants when her hormones are going crazy and hopelessly messing up not only her sense of taste, but also her emotions? She finds advice and support from her heavily pregnant friend Ida, whose slightly awkward husband Klaus is the exact opposite of Christian in his care. At the same time, Christian suddenly discovers unexpected father feelings and does everything in his power to win back Lilly. Between the chaos of love, hormonal surges and taste buds that got out of hand, the master chef soon no longer knows where her head is - and who is really the right one for her.
