Inspired by Douglas Sirk’s All That Heaven Allows, this quietly powerful story of the unlikely relationship that evolves between an elderly woman and a Moroccan migrant worker in post-war Germany is often considered to be Fassbinder’s masterpiece. First meeting in a bar during a rainstorm, the couple are surprised by their connection and soon decide to marry, causing scandal in their community. Fassbinder uses the emotional power of classic Hollywood to expose the racial tensions in his society. Specially commissioned programme notes are available here.
