Über Bord

English Title: Overboard

A ramshackle old villa, money worries, an aged mother, two daughters with unsuitable boyfriends, a badly paid, boring job at the residents’ registration office – that is how Ellen’s daily life looks. Divorced and getting on in years, her future seems to have lost its rosy glow. Only a fairy-tale prince can save her, but Ellen does not believe in miracles. Then a good-looking man turns up, claiming to be her half-brother. Following some genetic tests, astonishing family secrets are unearthed. The invitation to join a Mediterranean cruise should help them to get to know one another better, and for Ellen it promises to be the experience of a lifetime. But the illusion of a last great love ends up going overboard ... and it is not alone. »Overboard« has been sold to: Circe (Spain)
