Synopsis

Johanna Perl, a seven-time German swimming champion, lives her retired life isolated and lonely. Constant thoughts about death and the meaning of her existence torture her. Except for her memories of previous victories and her daughter, she has nothing left in life. But her days of senseless vegetation come to an end when she stumbles upon a lonely hearts ad in the newspaper. Drawn to it as though it were a sign from God, she arranges to meet the man. And it's love at first sight. Johannes is a writer and not until he meets Johanna does his luck strike. Finally he is able to finish his novel "You Told Me You Love Me" and it becomes a bestseller. Johanna too discovers new talents in photography and is finally able to make peace with her dead mother. But Johannes' success soon casts a dark cloud over their relationship. He starts to distance himself from Johanna and gets tangled up in an affair, not yet realizing that Johanna is indeed the love of his life. But everything that happens seems to have a purpose. And after a turbulent odyssey, the two find their way back to each other, thus proving the fate and destiny of their love for one another.
