Synopsis
Ingo is German, Cecilia is Spanish. They live in Luxembourg and are totally in love. It’s summertime and a heat wave is baking the heart of Europe. Cecilia’s father is coming to visit for the first time and Ingo wants to impress him by preparing an authentic Spanish paella. When Cecilia is picking up her father, Ingo is left out of his home because of an unfortunate current of air, with the paella on the fire and dressed only in an Andalusian apron. He will have to solve how to get back home without anyone noticing his nude situation, knowing that his girlfriend is just about to get home with a father-in-law he really needs to impress.
