Synopsis

When karate champ Andreas Marquardt thinks about himself he feels nothing but bitterness. When he was two years old, his father poured water over him and put him outside on the balcony in sub-zero temperatures. Another time he crushed his hand. When he was six, his mother began to seduce him. Later, Andreas became a pimp and earned millions –until he wound up behind bars. Lovely Marion was the only one who stood by him, who went on the game for him, and gave him the courage to go on… Rosa von Praunheim describes a life that veers from fear and humiliation to contempt, hatred and brutality. Is it possible to break out of such a vicious circle? And how does Andreas Marquardt cope with these experiences today?
