Der zweite Frühling (2003)
Hanne and Barbara have been best friends since they were young. Their lives have developed very differently: While the wealthy mail order owner Hanne lives in a large villa in Erfurt, Barbara lives quite modestly on her small widow's pension. The two spontaneously decide to revive their youth in Bad Elster, a tranquil health resort: at the tender age of 17, the friends had their first adventures with the opposite sex there, and now they want to know again. The spa management is not at all enthusiastic about the lust for life of the two ladies, especially the strict head nurse Inge. On the other hand, the love-hungry friends find much more understanding with the successful entrepreneur Edzard and the charming globetrotter Georg. In order to land optimally with the gentlemen, Hanne and Barbara simply swap roles: The shy widow mimes the rich lady life so as not to give the wealthy Edzard the impression that she is only interested in him because of his money. The fun-loving Hanne, on the other hand, slips into the role of the poor widow, because the bon vivant Georg has had bad experiences with rich women. But when Hannes' pampered son Simon, whose financial demands are not met by her as desired, out of disappointment informs the gentlemen in love about the true identities of Hanne and Barbara, this seems to be the end of the romantic adventure for Hanne and Barbara.
