A fictional account of one year in the life of Empress Elisabeth of Austria. On Christmas Eve 1877, Elisabeth, once idolized for her beauty, turns 40 and is officially deemed an old woman; she starts trying to maintain her public image.

Therese Schwarz represents the politician Konrad Wagner, a close friend of Paula Dennstein, who was pilloried by a newspaper for his #MeToo stigma. Therefore, the surprise visit from her little sister Marita doesn't fit into her plan at all. Especially since Marita, along with Ferdinand, has come into sensitive contact with the police due to a cannabis incident. For Konrad's defense, it's important to identify the slanderer, but it's a race against time, as the state elections are just around the corner...

On the day of Karo's first communion, her parents' marital problems come to light. The ensuing separation hits her hard. Karo complains to God about her desperate situation via walkie-talkie. A gruff voice answers, eventually identifying itself as God and unwittingly providing proof of this. When Karo sees the man behind the voice, she is overcome with doubt. With the goal of reconciling her parents in mind, she forces the man into his divine role and thus to help her. The attempts staged by Karo and God to save her parents' marriage trigger a rollercoaster of emotions. In the end, Karo has grown from her failed goal and has not only found new friends for her life, but also a new perspective.
