Philipp and Anna live in the Berlin Babyboom-Kiez Kreuzberg. They also like to go to the playground, but with their little niece Nele. Anna does not want to know anything about Philipp's sudden desire to have a baby. She is on the verge of a professorship and insists on the old agreement: kK - no children! The more intently he makes his baby application to his wife, the more obvious is her rebuff.

Trivia, insights & behind the scenes
The 'kK' (kein Kind) agreement mirrors real German childfree movements; the film sparked debates about male entitlement to parenthood.
Director Rasper cast actual Kreuzberg parents in playground scenes—some didn't realize they were in a film until wrap.
