After 24 years of marriage, the Bremermanns are out of breath: Interior designer Anja and civil engineer Christoph decide by mutual agreement to divorce in peace. Tell Frederik to son, they want to wait for the upcoming wedding with daughter Franziska. The couple think in no hurry, after all, they get along well with each other. A joint lawyer should be enough to smoothly handle assets, gains and division. That's the theory. In practice, undreamt-of dynamics awaken: Christoph sees the house and the wealth as a well-earned reward for his work, Anja does not feel her unpaid work in the household is appreciated. A few scheming tips from lawyer Dr. Schirmer and the surprising appearance of Christoph's ex-girlfriend Monika - and the mud fight begins. Before he knows it, Christoph is standing in the street with his back to the wall. However, Anja, whose maintenance demands are constantly growing, cannot be sure of her success for long. Because Christoph finds in lawyer Hansen also a shrewd legal counsel. Now the two spouses are anything but bored with each other.
