Germany's oldest rock'n'roller lives on welfare in Berlin-Neukölln. He used to be a "star", shook hands with Elvis and performed with the Beatles. Today he lives on the poverty line, but still performs with his band "Jacky and the Strangers". His small but loyal fan base helps him to cope better with the adversities of everyday life.
