The Marriage of Maria Braun + Intro (15)

Directors Focus: R.W. Fassbinder

Fri 8 - Sun 31 Aug
The disfigured wunderkind of the new German cinema, Fassbinder made over forty films before he died, burnt out from a drug overdose just after his 37th birthday, his self destructive tendencies reflecting those of his protagonists. Here we present some of his finest works alongside influences, and contemporary artists' responses to his life and films.
