The Bitter Tears of Petra von Kant + Short

+ Fassbinder Shorts  

Fassbinder Symphony (CTBA)

Before main feature this visual essay is a potent array of cross cutting, characters and camera moves. Skillfully cutting up footage from Fassbinder’s films, it explores Fassbinder’s preoccupations with destructive relationships, addictive behaviour and alienation.

The Daily Moods of the Final Certainly

Before main feature Viralux took the title from a film Fassbinder wanted to make about himself but never did. Edited film of the director silently smoking is accompanied by a pitch-shifted voice-over composed of his thoughts and writings. An homage to Fassbinder’s influence on contemporary culture.
