The Baltic Sea resort of Göhren is scenically located on the island of Rügen. But nature and tourism do not always go hand in hand. The rich investor W. Horst from North Rhine-Westphalia is building more and more hotels and accommodation, the planning of which is approved by four men on the municipal council without any problems. The motto is growth. But when the latest project envisages building in a nature reserve, Nadine and her father Bernd no longer want to accept that "the four off the peg" interfere in the environment of their hometown and determine their village. They see an upcoming local election, in which they must win a majority, as their only chance to oppose this.
