Things are hectic at the "Black and White Horse Inn" on Lake Königssee. Cordula, the young owner of the long-established family business, has just learned that her father, who died five years ago, included a clause in his will: If she fails to find a husband in the hospitality industry, she must hand the "horse" over to her greedy uncle Simon. He, in turn, had hidden the will in order to present it to Cordula now, just before the deadline. She has two weeks to fulfill her father's wishes. While she has an ideal candidate in her charming head waiter, Franz, the much-loved man is completely unaware that his boss has secretly been in love with him for a long time. Instead, Franz believes he has found the woman of his life in the pretty hotel management student Monika.

Meet Mark. A daydreamer who has lived with hearing loss for his whole life. As his condition deteriorates, Mark must listen to his past and face the present, in order to move forward with his life. Sometimes loss doesn't mean lost. At a routine checkup with his lifelong audiologist, Mark is presented with a hearing aid and with a choice. Between the torment from his childhood - and his stigma around wearing the hearing aid - he lashes out. But he remembers his young self, loving and loved; along with the care his late mother showed him. Through courage, he is able to connect with her; as she guides him through this tumultuous time in his life. He realises he can either continue to shut himself off from the world, or open up and begin to accept himself for who he really is.
