This Pride edition of Goethe Pop Up's German Cinema Now! series brings Oskar Roehler's biopic of the egocentric filmmaker Rainer Werner Fassbinder (who's widely regarded as the progenitor of the New German Cinema movement) to the screen. Instead of glossing over the late artist's abusive behavior toward his friends (and everyone he meets) and glorifying him as an icon, the film, which uses quick movement and sweaty lighting to great effect, draws out the subject's "art matters more than people" shtick until its absurdity is obvious.
