When Berta unwillingly inherits a bar 'Schrank,', she discovers that once its regulars confront their secrets, they leave the bar for good -Berta hatches a plan to help them all come out of their own closets—so she can finally close the bar forever and free herself from its burden.
When Berta’s mother retires from running the family’s quirky bar, ‘Schrank,’ she hands it off to her daughter—much to Berta's dismay. Berta has always hated the place, especially the strange, secretive regulars. The one rule? Never engage with the clients. Easy enough, especially since the bar itself, which seems to have a mind of its own, discourages it. But when boredom kicks in, Berta starts chatting with the patrons and discovers that by helping them confront their secrets, they leave for good. Seeing a chance to finally be free, she devises a plan to push every customer to face the truth and close the bar for good. With eccentric regulars, a sentient bar, and a reluctant heroine trying to escape it all, Schrank is a sitcom about secrets, strange customers, and one woman’s quest to shut it down—one confession at a time.
