In 'Toni Erdmann', a father named Winfried Conradi travels to Bucharest, Romania to visit his daughter Ines, who is a successful business consultant there. Winfried believes that Ines has lost her sense of humor and decides to surprise her by adopting the persona of 'Toni Erdmann', a life coach with a penchant for practical jokes and wearing fake teeth. Despite Ines' initial disapproval, she finds herself drawn into Toni's world, which includes impromptu team-building exercises, painted faces, and even a stint as a male masseur. As their relationship evolves, they both confront deeper emotional issues stemming from the death of Winfried's mother and their strained father-daughter bond.
