Thirty-two year old Florian dangles a baited hook in the waters of a Cologne daily paper’s lonely hearts section. He owns a chaotically untidy flat and a motorbike he hasn’t paid off yet, he’s got an irritating mother and two really close friends. So what’s missing? A woman, of course. His early flirtations with his new neighbour Neele actually seem quite promising, but there are several obstacles, the biggest of which is Lily, Neele’s bat-eared dog. The animal presents a real challenge for Florian, who’s not a fan of dogs, especially when they squat and pee against his cherished motorbike. But then what wouldn’t you put up with for the sake of love....
