... the film is not dispossessed of Fassbinder's absorbing narrative capacity, here more given to caricature and the unreal tone than usual. [Full review in Spanish]

As always, the beauty of a Fassbinder film is in the telling -- the camera work is stunning, the color and the music superbly complement the story line and the director's chilling sense of irony is apparent.

Rating: 5/5 --
There no longer can be any doubt about it: Rainer Werner Fassbinder is the most dazzling, talented, provocative, original, puzzling, prolific and exhilarating film maker of his generation. Anywhere.

Product Description:
Alternately acclaimed and controversial German auteur Rainer Werner Fassbinder's disturbing, twisted, and often very funny satire about modern culture and terrorism was made in 1979, but remains an intriguing and, of course, still-timely look at the subject. The provocative film follows an inept group of radicals who take a well-known businessman hostage to draw attention to their cause, but soon find themselves consumed with infighting and somewhat-justified paranoia, unwitting pawns of the very state they oppose. The capable cast includes Harry Baer, Hark Bohm, Margit Carstensen, and Udo Kier.
