Glück
A sprightly tale follows the life of Max, a modest boy whose endless curiosity is captured in a single, unforgettable question: “Worauf freuen wir uns jetzt?” From his earliest moments—glittering eyes and a cradle‑bound chant—to his awkward school days and family conversations, the refrain becomes his constant companion. As friends and teachers try to steer him toward more conventional sayings, Max clings to his own mantra, turning everyday situations into playful exchanges.
The narrative weaves humor with gentle satire, painting a portrait of a society that both laughs at and tolerates Max’s obstinate optimism. Through lively dialogues and vivid scenes—political gatherings, rainy outings, and quiet moments at home—the story invites listeners to reflect on the simple joy of waiting for something wonderful, even when the world seems intent on moving past it.
