Directed by Rainer Werner FassbinderMy rating: 2.5 stars out of 4
IMDb
(DVD, Wellspring)
Cryptic Fassbinder piece about a terrorist cell in Berlin. The members are more or less ordinary citizens who for some reason decide to become terrorists. They spend most of their time bickering among themselves and having sex. They don disguises towards the end, apparently at Carnival time in Berlin, and some of them meet random, violent deaths. The soundtrack is a constant stream of conversation from an ever present television that plays through the entire film and is quite distracting. Ridiculous, obscene quotes from Berlin urinals start each "chapter".
