Description
Rockstar Matthias - A documentary by Christoph Rahm about art, friendship, and schizophrenia. The documentary provides a deep insight into Matthias Noser's life: his passion for music and art, his chronic mental illness, and the various relationships that shape him.
Since the age of 15, Matthias has been living with paranoid schizophrenia, which manifests in recurring psychoses. Long-term hospital stays have marked many years of his life. In this context, he met Christoph Rahm, then a psychiatric nurse, now a filmmaker.
From the first encounter, a friendship developed — far from institutional settings and after a period of distance. The connecting force between them is their shared enthusiasm for creativity and existential questions.
Art makes encounters possible, free from prejudices. This microcosm is complemented in the documentary by family, therapists, and companions who share their perspectives. The audience immerses in Matthias's music, visual, and thought worlds. His work is obsessive, consistent, and honest. After the 97-minute film, there will be a discussion with the protagonist Matthias Noser and director Christoph Rahm.
