QRT – a condensed existence of the 90s in Berlin, sleepless and aimless, analyzing the themes of the time. Techno and heroin, heroes and saints, comics and film, philosophy and performance. He turned himself into a subject of radical living, too close, too intense. This documentary approaches QRT’s life and crafts an anecdotal biography through interviews with friends who look back on their shared time up to QRT’s tragic drug-related death in ‘96. Excerpts from his texts, published posthumously by Merve Verlag, are also presented.

Marina and Andriy are an adult couple and have been trying to have a child for a long time. Their relationship has become cold, closed, and sex is becoming a technical process on a schedule between getting medications. Despite the conscientious implementation of all doctors appointments, Marina has spontaneous abortion. The main question between Marina and Andriy is whether they will be able to have a child at all and whether they need each other, looking at what their relationship has become.

Set over three generations and beginning with a sexually frustrated orderly during WWII who relieves his tensions in the most outlandish, gross ways. The result of his liaison is a glutton who grows up to be a champion speed eater. He produces a child who becomes obsessed with taxidermy.
