Svend Johansen

A portrait of Flemming Quist Møller's life, both as the man, the musician and the artist. Throughout the narrative, we encounter his work with film, music, theater, plays, satire drawings, book illustrations, paintings, screenwriting; we experience that he, as a communicator and narrator, is always on the side of the weak, working with the simple, straightforward and human. We experience his personal story from the childhood home, the travels, the paralysis as a young person, the ornithologist, glænø life, the anti-authoritarian, family life and how the ups and downs of his career have affected his life. The film contains clips from his various works, especially the cartoons he is best known for in Denmark; among others .. The bicycle mosquito Egon, the jungle animal Hugo and Benny's Bathtub.
