English Summary:

Kokowääh is set in Berlin and Potsdam, Brandenburg, Germany. The plot concerns the travails of Henry (Til Schweiger), an established author of fiction, who must deal with the emergence of his 8-year-old natural daughter Magdalena (Emma Tiger Schweiger), the previously unknown product of a one-night indiscretion in Stockholm. In the meantime, he is also working on the adaptation of a famous best–selling novel and reconciling with his ex–girlfriend Katharina (Jasmin Gerat), with whom he is working on the adaptation. Little Magdalena, still in the state of shock, loves her foster father Tristan (Samuel Finzi) more than the biological one. Throughout the film, Henry and Magdalena build a close relationship, which he eventually describes in his script "Kokowääh" (referring to the French meal "Coq au vin"). 

German Summary:

Seitdem sich der mäßig erfolgreiche Drehbuchautor Henry von seiner Freundin Katharina getrennt hat, befindet er sich an einem persönlichen und kreativen Tiefpunkt. Das Einzige, was er zustande bringt, ist das Drehbuch der Fernsehserie „Der Förster vom Spreewald“, die schließlich wegen Zuschauermangels abgesetzt wird. Als ihm dank seiner Agentin das unerwartete Angebot gemacht wird, an der Adaption des Bestseller-Romans „Freiflug“ mitzuarbeiten, bietet sich ihm endlich die Möglichkeit, sein Leben grundlegend zu verändern. Allerdings ist die Autorin, mit der er das Drehbuch erarbeiten soll, seine Ex-Freundin Katharina.
