Plot

An ironic life review of Rosa von Praunheim based on a fictional story about his murder. For a sensational story about the victim, an idiosyncratic TV reporter tries to unravel details about the director's life. Meanwhile, the police are groping in the dark trying to solve the case. But as always when it comes to the murder of a gay man, the officers are certain that the killer is to be found in the gay scene.

Reception

The journalist Allen Barra wrote: "Neurosia: 50 Years of Perversity is one of the funniest and most inventive German comedies ever made, a murder-mystery in a form of a mock-documentary." (The Star-Ledger)[4]
