Overview

Anna Haslböck, writing as Karina Norden, hires young drummer Nicolas Auer to pose as her lover and boost sales for her new book on dating younger men. Nicolas, recently dumped by a girlfriend influenced by Anna’s advice, reluctantly plays along while Anna secretly maintains a ten-year affair with industrialist Wolf Richter. As Anna and Nicolas co-host a fledgling talk show, Nicolas begins a real affair with journalist Martina Schwarz, forcing Anna to juggle contracts, jealousy, and public image. When Wolf announces plans to marry a society beauty, Anna’s world unravels - she confesses her long affair to Wolf’s wife Ilse live on air. The on-set revelations by Ilse and her partner Bodo mirror Anna’s own sacrifices. In the end, the show is a hit, Anna frees Nicolas from their PR pact, and Martina forgives him, leaving Anna to rebuild her personal and professional life.
