Summaries

Rainbow press reporter Ludo is sentenced to 8 months; he's released on probation but must work at a local daycare center for 300 hours. He meets Anna, who has unfinished business with him.

Gossip-columnist Ludo finds himself sentenced to 300 hours of community service after he literally crashes a private celebrity party. The work is at a children's day-centre and while the job's fine, the person in charge is a woman whom he used to play endless practical jokes on when they were at school; she hasn't forgotten and is prepared to use her new-found power to get her own back. However, she finds out that, like the children, she's warming to him. If only the court injunction had also stopped his womanizing.—J-26

Manchmal glaubt er sogar selbst an die Storys,die er verzapft und eines Tages geht das ins Auge: Die Richterin brummtihm 300 soziale Arbeitsstunden in einem Kinderhort auf. Dort herrschtAnna (Nora Tschirner), die den Schwerenöter Ludo schon als Kind nichtausstehen konnte. Ludo muss also barfuß durch die Hölle. ZwischenKlatschspalten und Klettergerüsten entdeckt er sich selbst es ist derKnüller seines Lebens.

The street is his beat: with his fellow paparazzi Moritz (Matthias Schweighöfer), reporter Ludo (Til Schweiger) is always on the lookout for stars, starlets, & harlots. Sometimes, he even believes the storys he types, and one day, he gets what he deserves: the court orders him to spend 300 hours in public service at a nursurey school. Anna (Nora Tschirner) is in charge there - a woman the womanizing Ludo couldn't stand as a child - and working for her is like walking through Hell barefoot. Between gossip columns & scaffolding, he learns this is the scoop of his life.
