Die Markus Family

Deutschland 1999/2000 Dokumentarfilm

The Markus Family

"The Markus Family" tells the life of Markus Anatol Weisse, who, despite having an extreme visual disability, became a painter. He builds robots and wishes he could become a Bio-Robot, a Cyborg. Markus Anatol Weisse takes us into his fascinating reality where not only his world of pictures but also his bizarre humour encourage us to see the world with "different eyes".

 


What would it be like to be stranded on a traffic island? To live in a village at the end of the world? To talk to mechanical creatures? To long for love? And to find a friend?!
