Where to go with grandma? Matthias is hopelessly overwhelmed when suddenly his mother Gisela is at the door. After breaking her neck, she is in a wheelchair and needs help.

Matthias has to do it himself and his mother makes it anything but easy for him. When he finds out that Gisela has released herself from the rehabilitation clinic, it changes the way he sees his mother. He understands that she needs new courage and is desperately looking for a solution. It comes quite unexpectedly from Tom, Gisela's ten-year-old grandson. He recognizes from an old holiday photo how radiantly happy Gisela used to be. "Maybe she was in love," he speculates, and that gives Matthias an idea: Grandma Gisela needs an admirer. His unusual plan works better than expected. The anonymous love letters, which he writes himself, enchant his mother. Secretly she practices walking and rediscovers her femininity. She even thinks she knows who is behind the pseudonym, and when she wants to meet the stranger, the whole scam threatens to be exposed. Now Matthias and his accomplice Tom need a real admirer.
