The life of the Cologne architect Mads is as empty as his apartment. Since the death of his beloved wife, the 44-year-old has only been able to function in a reduced daily routine. A chance reunion with his best friend from his youth changes everything. The cheerful single woman René moves in with him with her children - nine-year-old Lola and six-year-old Oscar. Finally, life is coming back into his life! Although René is not even considering the good-looking, successful guy as a new partner, Mads is growing into the unfamiliar role of the perfect patchwork dad. Friends without benefits, but with children - it works amazingly perfectly! When Mads becomes interested in the fascinating Eva, who is just as cautious as he is, an unwanted complication comes into the lightness of being: René receives a medical diagnosis that requires far-reaching decisions. Although he has other plans, Mads knows what he has to do.

Richie trades the warmth of his friends' company for the thrilling promise of an online encounter, but once in the apartment of the Bodybuilder the initial promise turns into awkward but vulnerable conversation, which eventually gives way to an unusual ritual- one that is physical, intimate, and strangely liberating at the same time. But is Richie interpreting the tension between them correctly, or will he return to square one adrift in his phone screen? A strangely awkward, funny and tender look at the miscommunication and connection all within the liminal space of online dating.
