Mathias is a teacher and has finally managed to get transferred to his daughter’s school. But no sooner has he arrived than he learns that his German class is to be closed due to a lack of enrollment. He decides to organize a trip to Germany to motivate the young people to choose this language. To finance the trip, he turns to Iris, the head of the local partnership committee. The only problem is that Mathias is a Spanish teacher. Between Mathias, who doesn’t speak a word of German, suffering teenagers, and an irrational Iris, the class trip turns into utter chaos. But nothing can stop him from becoming the father his daughter is no longer waiting for… To achieve his goal, he simply has to become a genius!
