Word of Honour

A life-threatening fall brings almost 90-year-old Willy Knobel to the hospital. The prognosis is grim, and the doctors expect only a few weeks left. Despite the loud protests of his son Harald, his wife Petra insists that the old man be cared for at their home. No one thought that grandson Max would manage to get his grandfather back on his feet with his vanilla pudding cure. The better Willy feels, the more Harald and Petra's lives begin to unravel. While the couple struggles to figure out how to get rid of the unwanted guest discreetly, Max starts a romance with the caregiver Jenny, who also harbors a secret. Ingrid Noll's bitterly funny comedy reveals that there are no perfect or sacred families.
