La directora de cine Rosa von Praunheim, procedente de Letonia, y especializada en cine documental, se acerca al universo creativo del famoso dibujante de cómics alemán Ralf Köning que, a finales de los ochenta, se hizo un hueco en el mundillo underground gracias a un trabajo con el que consiguió mucha repercusión internacional: "El hombre deseado" (que más tarde se convertiría en película). Köning otorgaba a sus viñetas un aire desinhibido y gamberro, hablaba de temas delicados sin ningún tipo de tapujos y se acercó a los tabúes (especialmente las relaciones homosexuales, la promiscuidad y el sida) aportando un toque de humor. El documental repasa su trayectoria y se adentra en las inquietudes del artista, en su proceso creativo, al mismo tiempo que el autor nos desvela las armas intelectuales que ha vertido en sus trabajos más célebres, así como su intención, desde que era joven de luchar contra la fachada moral de la sociedad biempensante a través de la sátira más afilada.
