Synopsis
BOB is a professional heart-breaker: young, good-looking. He is a Casanova of the postfeminist era. For Bob the marriage with a banker´s daughter would be merely a financial matter - a very cool way of securing a carefree future. But then Bob meets Barbara, a mature, confident and very independent woman in her late thirties. She is concentrating on her career in a bank and takes care of her three kids. Bob realizes that he has fallen in love with her, something that he never thought possible and he finds an excuse to ‘hide’ at her place for a while. Barbara is losing her doubts and has to admit that she’s in love with him. She introduces him to her kids as the new housekeeper. Suddenly Bob finds himself being a father-figure to Barbara’s three children and what seems to be difficult at first turns out to be something that he really likes. But Bob’s adventurous Casanova past catches up with him.
