No Hit Wonder

He wanted to go out with a big bang, but instead he's in the lock-up and not allowed out. He used to be at the top - Olympic stadium, 10,000 lighters in the evening wind, everyone sang his song. Now he's at the bottom - not even the "jungle camp" wants him anymore. The only thing he has left is this cursed song, to which he owes everything and which has taken everything from him at the same time. Dr. Lissi Waldstett is researching happiness. Or rather, she only does research when she's not emptying bedpans in the locked ward. Because you don't get rich with her research topic - happiness is not a health insurance benefit. She needs an eye-catcher, something that attracts attention. When Daniel wakes up on her ward, Lissi sees her chance and makes him a dubious offer under the table: she will help him if he helps her. All he has to do is make a group of lonely people happy with her. By singing, of all things. And so Daniel and Lissi unexpectedly stumble into an adventure. Each thinks they have the other in the palm of their hand. They get caught up in each other, blackmail each other, lose themselves in the group of lovable outsiders and ... yes ... somehow they all sing for their lives.
