When a desperate man is told to strip in front of a sadistic client as part of a bizarre birthday gift, he is thrust into a world of humiliation and violence. As he navigates through his dangerous new job, he must confront his own desires and the manipulative behavior of those around him.
Uwe Friessner’s first feature, At the End of the Rainbow, follows the exploits of a West Berlin teenager named Jimmi who ekes out a living through petty theft and part-time hustling, hangs out in punk clubs, and who, for reasons which this film subtly details, is thoroughly unemployable. Drawing on his own experience in trying to help a young runaway who eventually committed suicide, Friessner wrote into Jimmi’s story several older students who attempt to find work for him, and who give him shelter for a time in their commune.
