The eccentric widower Walter (HEINER LAUTERBACH) whiles away his retirement time testing restaurants and meticulously reviewing them online. During one of his restaurant visits, he unexpectedly runs into his childhood sweetheart, Alice (IRIS BERBEN). Forty years ago, he proposed to her and spectacularly failed. The vivacious and free-spirited art professor is still the complete opposite of the old-fashioned, meticulous Walter. The retired engineer's ambition is rekindled. He wants to do better this time, while Alice has no intention of doing so, as she cherishes her independent life and doesn't need the stress of a relationship. She sets one condition: only if he shows genuine interest in her world will he perhaps get a second chance. And so, to Alice's dismay, Walter, who has never been interested in art, enrolls as a guest student in her course – determined to prove to himself and to her that it's never too late to explore new paths. But it's not just Alice who presents him with unexpected challenges, but also his encounter with his fellow students, who are 40 years his junior. Unexpectedly, Alice and Walter find themselves in a new, exciting chapter of their lives and must ask themselves: Does old love really never rust?
