Synopsis
Infamous gay German filmmaker Rosa Von Praunheim is murdered on stage while hosting a tribute to himself. When both the murderer and the body disappear, tabloid journalist Gesine Ganzmann-Seipel is assigned to uncover the motive for the crime. The investigation recounts Von Praunheim's life and exploits, from the parental sofa to the latrines of the Berlin Underground, and on to the saunas of New York City, with countless film clips and a bizarre assortment of characters--angry ex-lovers, bitter actors, hedonistic porn stars, and a loving mother. The intrepid, platinum-blond reporter soon discovers that everyone wanted to kill Rosa.
