Es Ist Alles In Ordnung functions as a conventional domestic drama centered on preserving a traditional family unit. The narrative prioritizes middle-class stability and the legalities of kinship, such as adoption, rather than challenging social hierarchies. The film follows standard genre clichés, focusing on the emotional complexities of motherhood and puberty. It lacks significant representation of diverse identities, particularly regarding LGBTQ+ characters and racial diversity. Ultimately, the work offers a narrow view of family life, emphasizing the maintenance of an 'ideal' domestic structure over systemic or cultural subversion.

Official Synopsis
36-year-old Birgit desires nothing more than an intact family. Since she lives with her husband Andreas, the common child Philip and Sarah, her daughter from a previous, failed relationship in solid economic conditions in a terraced house, she feels very close to her ideal. Through Sarah's puberty, the family is put to the test. But Birgit believes that luckily only the formal confirmation of the adoption of Sarah by Andreas is missing.
