Word of Honour

A breakneck fall takes almost 90-year-old Willy Knobel to hospital. The prognoses are bad, the doctors expect a few weeks. Despite the loud protests of his son Harald, his wife Petra succeeds in having the old man cared for at their home. Nobody would have thought that grandson Max would manage to get his grandfather back on his feet with his vanilla pudding cure. The better the carer feels, the more Harald and Petra's life begins to fall apart. While the two of them rack their brains about how to get rid of the troublemaker without a fuss, Max ties up with the nurse Jenny, who also guards a secret. In her bitterly evil comedy, Ingrid Noll shows that there are as few holy families as there are healthy ones.
