The godless, rough-necked Ludwig Bruckmeier has repeatedly maneuvered himself into prison. Thanks to a generous donation, he is now being accommodated by his energetic probation officer Christine Wurzelbacher in Pastor Gabriel Gottwald's rectory, of all places. The man of God wants to bring the reluctant Ludwig onto the right path with the help of his kind pastoral advisor Elisabeth. But Ludwig turns the church, including the rectory and retirement home, upside down. He doesn't stop at the confessional either. There he has a lucrative encounter with Josef Wurzelbacher, the troubled husband of his probation officer.
