- The Matthiesens seem to have a deep penchant for failure in the family - as does their rough-and-tumble nature. Accordingly, father Matthiesen welcomes his daughters after many years of radio silence: "You have aged harshly." But that can't scare Esther, Rahel and Thirza. Firstly, they know their old man and secondly, there is no other home for the stranded people. The run-down riding stable today has little in common with the idyll of their childhood, when they dreamily saw an endless prairie in the heathland. Their father has been drinking since their mother left the family, and the girls later gradually left. Besides the schnapps, Matthiesen only has one friend, the indestructible veterinarian Gernot Rantzer. The loner has to get used to his daughters again, especially since each of them has enough problems with them. Esther, fearing for her job, hides her messed up son David from the police. Rahel is currently digesting an entrepreneurial landing with her ambitious fashion label. And "nest hook" Thirza, who has never really found her feet, dreams of a life as a writer. Now, of all times, the Matthiesen daughters' last refuge is in danger of disappearing: If their father can't pay back the loans in a few days, the bank will make short work of it and seize all of their property. But this awakens unexpected powers in the stubborn clan.
