Frank Ripploh's bold, explicit debut returns in 4K - capturing queer life in 1980s Berlin with raw intimacy, wry humor, and fearless honesty.
Marking the 45th anniversary of its original release, Frank Ripploh's groundbreaking autobiographical debut returns in a new 4K restoration--offering a vivid, uncompromising portrait of queer life in West Berlin at the dawn of the 1980s.
By day, Frank is a dedicated schoolteacher. By night, he embraces the sexual freedoms of the city's underground scene--navigating a double life in public restrooms, cinemas, and cruising spots. When he meets Bernd, a sweet and steady museum worker, Frank finds himself torn between the comfort of domestic partnership and the allure of anonymous desire.
Unapologetically explicit and deeply personal, Taxi zum Klo shattered taboos upon its release and remains a landmark of queer cinema. Shot with unfiltered candor and infused with a distinctively wry humor, Ripploh's film continues to resonate for its fearless exploration of identity, intimacy, and freedom.
