Lothar König has a huge scar over his right eye - the Jena youth pastor was once knocked unconscious by a neo-Nazi. But Lothar König refused to let it get him down. He campaigned against right-wing extremists, for youth work and the integration of foreigners and became known throughout Germany. His son Tilman König has created this cinematic memorial to him that shows his fathers courage as well as his contradictions.
