Geriatric nurse Kuno, a bachelor at 56 and somewhat disappointed by his uneventful life, gets to know his father all over again when he moves in with Mr Berger at the old people’s home. The two old men know each other. During the Second World War, they worked for the intelligence service of the Swiss army and have many an adventurous tale to tell.
