Synopsis
[edit]Friedrich is delighted to be able to move out of the noisy city to an idyllic villa in the countryside with his wife Bert and daughter Else. He believes himself to be the luckiest man in the world, but his happiness is soon cut short by the fact nothing seems to work in the new property. In addition Pepi Freisinger, who he dislikes, is still courting his daughter out in the countryside. To cap it all Freisinger's father whose noisy restaurant had been one of the reasons Friedrich had left the city, announces that is building a new restaurant and amusement park right next to the villa. This is the final straw for Friedrich, who decides to sell his new property and return to the tranquillity of the city.
