Suche nach Leben

Deutschland 1998 Dokumentarfilm mit Spielhandlung

Summary

Searching For Life

Hans Eppendorfer begins his daily walk through St. Pauli at 6 o′clock today. The dirt of the night is still sticking to the steaming concrete of this mile of lust and despair. Eppendorfer′s gait is heavy, but upright; every step is a step of truth, and in this knowledge, he opens the door to his world of the past.

 

With the opening of each door, we enter a story from Hans Eppendorfer′s life. To the court-room where he was charged with murder as a sixteen year-old, to Egypt where a 15 year-old street boy brought him to the "key of life". Eppendorfer′s stories come alive through his vivid narration and the rendering of these stories in staged re-enactments.
