Svea Classen and Peter Pirnegger are happily married in Stralsund. They are married in a civil ceremony, and now that Svea is pregnant, they plan to have a church wedding in Peter's hometown, the Alpine village of St. Josef. Peter's parents, Inge and Joseph Pirnegger, the hotelier and mayor of St. Josef, live there. Svea can't imagine a church wedding in the Austrian mountains. After some hesitation, however, she agrees to one anyway. Joseph plans to keep them in the village long-term. Peter receives an offer to become chief veterinarian in the national park planned there—a dream come true for Peter.
Svea and Peter are now parents of a daughter. Svea was elected mayor of the neighboring community of Klamm and, as such, fights for the interests of the mountain farmers. With Munich-based conservation expert Martin Gollan and her assistant Igor, Svea develops an alternative concept for the national park. Joseph, however, ensures that Peter, as chief veterinarian, stabs her in the back at a hearing. Peter has had enough; he's tired of being manipulated by his father again and is ready to return to Stralsund with his daughter Josefine and Svea.

However, the ambitious stepmother only gives her own daughter a beautiful dress. But the magic tree on Marie's mother's grave throws down a beautiful dress. Cinderella shines at the ball and enchants the prince, but just before midnight, before the spell expires, she flees. Will the prince be able to love a Cinderella?

Policewoman Tilda is in the dark, and her only connection to the outside world is her cell phone. She contacts her stepson, gravedigger Max Broll, and tells him that she has been buried in a box. According to Tilda, the perpetrator is Leopold Wagner, the "child maker," whom she put behind bars years ago. However, since Wagner is still in prison, this can't be true.
A thirtysomething couple invites another couple to dinner in the suburban pad to which they’ve recently moved. Complications ensue. The less you know about this unsettling chamber-piece drama, the better. Suffice it to say, it deftly and deliciously wrongfoots the audience all the way to its enigmatic finale. The pieces of the film’s carefully constructed jigsaw puzzle elegantly slot together; even then, everyone will see a slightly different picture.
