Day-care centre director Katharina is still attracted to her childhood sweetheart Juri Hoffmann. He spends a night of drinking with his best friend Christian and Katharina's best friend Sybille, which makes Katharina and especially Christian's wife Yvonne jealous. Tensions also arise between Sybille and Katharina, who are also colleagues. Meanwhile, Katharina's husband Georg is jealous of Juri, with whom Katharina almost became intimate if Sybille - who for her part has a strong interest in Juri - had not interrupted her. In a discussion with Georg and Juri, Katharina makes it clear to both of them that she wants to stay together with Georg. Katharina denies Yuri's question whether Katharina's first-born son is his. Juri continues to have problems with his dementia-stricken father, for whom Katharina finds him a carer, so Juri plans his return flight to Canada. Whether he actually takes off remains open at the end of the film.

Most data and links to images for the Movies section come from TheMovieDB (TMDB).
Additional data for Film Titles come from The Open Movie Database (OMDb).
At least one plug-in comes from IMDb.
Data are -- hey, it's a plural -- subject to the limitations of their sources. (For example, TMDB search results currently max out at 20.) I am limiting myself to free data sources for now. (No, a "free trial" is not free.)
While much of the above data are retrieved directly from outside APIs and other such sources, data from American Film Institute (AFI) and British Film Institute (BFI) were manually entered the old fashioned way into a MySQL database. Re BFI I took the following liberties:
Regarding profile removals and data corrections:
Filtering is applied here to film projects flagged as "adult" by TheMovieDB. Pending "popular demand" I am contemplating a login and profile system with preferences (such as whether to allow adult images to appear) and permissions (such as data entry).
Whereas the overall purpose of this website is to serve as a personal demo/portfolio/workshop of web and data skills, this Movies section is not meant to compete with or substitute for far more definitive movie websites.
Whether or not he still clings to an award which he won in 1986 as a film critic for his college's newspaper, Jeffrey Hartmann is not responsible for the texts of overviews and biographies supplied by external data sources.
