Synopsis
A portrait of Ralf König, one of Gemany's best-known comic illustrators. König's life and art are closely intertwined with the emergent gay community of the late seventies. It all began in a village in Westphalia where at an early age illustrating helped him come out. His early scribbles soon evolved into a confident singular comic style that is both frivolous and anarchistic. König's topics and themes have long extended beyond homosexuality to embrace more universal and philosophic subjects.
