Klaus Lemke, the most resolute dreamer of German film, is dead. The Schwabing fighter for cinema without a script and funding created masterpieces such as “Rocker” and “Sylvie”.

Films with little money and basically no film funding, no screenplay, no trained actors or even stars – and yet brimming with reality, with beguiling women, courageous boys and always completely unforgettable, magical moments: that was the philosophy, the film art and the same precarious as well as clever, courageous as well as freedom-loving life practice of Klaus Lemke.
