Synopsis

Having been brought up by a variety of different mothers, the young foreign language correspondent Lisa Hellmann now longs for a sense of family security in her adopted home of Barcelona. She may have found this with Emilio de Alvarado's family. The (strictly Catholic) wedding is already planned and the obligatory christening is on the agenda. But then Lisa's old-68 grandmother Ingeborg bursts into the ceremony and not only causes displeasure with her views, but also shakes Lisa's faith in the rightness of her actions.
