Synopse
The TV adaptation of the ARD radio play series Paartherapeut Klaus Kranitz – Bei Trennung Geld zurück. Very different men and women come to the eccentric couples therapist Klaus Kranitz (Jan Georg Schütte) for help. His principle: three sessions cost €1500, then the relationship is officially fixed. His promise: if you break up, you get your money back. Using unconventional methods and strange assistants, above all the philosophical hitman Manni (Bjarne Mädel), Kranitz sends his clients on a rollercoaster ride of relationship madness and treats them with a mixture of kitchen sink philosophy und unusual tips. A feast of laconic humour and jet-black comedy.
