"You know that feeling when everything seems to get to you - and you start doing the craziest things?" Jana Frank knows exactly this feeling all too well. The woman in her late thirties has a demanding job as a operations planner for an airline and, as a single mother, has to look after her teenage daughter Marie - and her father-in-law Charly. The likeable roommate is not necessarily what Jana would call an educationally valuable role model, on the contrary: the eco-friendly "pension revolutionary" and his granddaughter want to green the concrete canyons of Frankfurt in illegal cloak-and-dagger actions. When the two cheeky guerrilla gardeners are caught by the police again, Jana has finally had enough: she throws the incorrigible Charly out the door. He reacts defiantly and quickly auctions off an overgrown Spessart country house on the Internet. So that he doesn't fall for a scammer, Jana accompanies him to the remote biotope as a precaution. The owner, Thomas Lorenz, is an environmental biologist and essentially sells his entire life with the house in order to move to Mauritania as a crocodile researcher. He immediately likes Charly, but Jana remains skeptical. From the very first moment, the well-organized city girl and the casual animal researcher engage in teasing duels: about the price of the house, the right relationship with nature - and this darn longing for home. But: opposites attract - and so the two become very close emotionally despite their different views on life. But Jana, whose relationship has been damaged and who doesn't dare, fears the loss of control. She believes she has to be there for her job, her daughter and her father-in-law. Charly and Marie have long since made their own plans. And Jana gradually realizes that sometimes you just have to let go in order to make your dreams come true - even if they sound crazy to others.
