Pelin, a young single mother from the problem neighborhood of Berlin-Wedding, is sent with her three children by different fathers of different nationalities - Robby (seven), Elvis (four) and Roxanne (ten months) - to a mother-child cure in a scenic, paradisiacal spa resort in northern Germany. The cure is intended to give Pelin, who is constantly on a collision course with the youth welfare office and family court, time to reflect and recover physically and mentally.
