Synopsis:
This is a black comedy about an unlucky and clumsy writer who tries every imaginable way to get hold of some money. He has a brother fascinated by flies, a wife who counts the days since they last slept together, a rich masochistic lover who he accidentally shoots -- and at least one more lover. In the midst of all this mess he finds time to declare himself the reincarnation of Stefan Georg, a gay German poet from the 19th century.
