Synopsis

Unbridled queer punk energy (and sex) pulses through this gay tragedy about a threesome of gay lovers and the radical family they surround themselves with.

Review

Germany's answer to New Queer Cinema, this tragic modern-day fairy tale follows the lives of several junkies, queers, street performers and anarchists all living amidst glorious squalor in a trash-strewn, post-unification Berlin. Prince in Hell is queer romantic nihilism for a ravaged, turmoil-filled Germany.

With pulsating music, raunchy S/M sex and a "fuck life" attitude, the story's main characters are two gay lovers who are about to break up.

Stefan and Jockel live in a wildly painted trailer on the outskirts of a Berlin. Jockel's got a problem, he likes his heroin, much to the chagrin of Stefan who tries desperately to get his friend off the junk. With very little story, Prince in Hell is all atmosphere - and plenty of it. Something else there's plenty of is nudity and gay sex! While no one could call this film a picnic, it's hard not to watch. (German with English subtitles)
