Maybe... Maybe Not

Axel Feldheim is a waiter whose girlfriend, Doro, throws him out after catching him with another woman. Left without a place to stay, he meets Walter, a gay man who takes an interest in him and brings him to a party. There Axel is introduced to Norbert, whose large apartment has room for a lodger, and he moves in. Living with Norbert suits Axel, even though his host is attracted to him. When Doro, who is expecting his child, wants him back, Axel faces a difficult choice about where he belongs.

Sönke Wortmann directed and wrote the screenplay for this German comedy, based on a comic by Ralf König, with Bernd Eichinger producing.

Til Schweiger plays Axel, Joachim Król plays Norbert, and Katja Riemann plays Doro, with Rufus Beck, Armin Rohde and Martina Gedeck among the credited cast of twenty-two.
