"Ground-breakingly gruesome. The first erotic film for necrophiles!" -John Waters Rob's (Daktari Lorenz) is an employee at Joe's Streetcleaning Agency, a roving team of misfits who visit roadside accidents and clean up the mess. He lives with his girlfriend Betty (Beatrice M.) in a small Berlin flat. Pictures of centerfold models and serial killers decorate the walls. Human body parts are neatly displayed, floating in formaldehyde, sealed in glass jars. Rob adds to his collection daily, much to Betty's delight.
Not content with only the body parts, Rob recovers a bloated corpse from the swamp and brings it home to Betty. She is overjoyed, and with the rotten corpse between them, they pledge their undying love.
But all good things must end. Betty soon becomes enamored with the corpse, leaves Rob, and takes the corpse with her as a parting gift. Unable to cope with his loss, Rob travels a twisted road of sickness and self-abuse before finding salvation and happiness through a very sharp knife.
