Soraya (Neda Rahmanian) and André Faber (Matthias Koeberlin) are worried about their 16-year-old daughter Mila (Hannah Schiller), who - presumably due to the bad influence of her boyfriend Leon (Paul Sundheim) - is in danger of slipping away from them. Without further ado, they invite Leon's parents Viktor (Maximilian Grill) and Monika Popow (Josefine Preuss) to their spacious architect-designed house for dinner. While the rich Fabers are still thinking about a considerate, understated style of clothing, Viktor and the cashier Monika arrive on their motorbikes already dressed up - in a fighting mood. The evening takes an unpredictable course with increasing dynamics and in view of the adolescent behavior of the unleashed parents.

There is a lot of controversy around Q-force. It’s certainly not hard to see why—the series is quite hyperbolic. I will say, that was the first aspect I noticed on my initial watch. Right from the get-go Q-Force barrages you with gay joke after gay joke. This is hit or miss throughout the series.
With the Rise Of #FreeBritney, It's Time to Re-Examine "Crossroads"
