From his first short film in 1966 to his untimely death in 1982, Rainer Werner Fassbinder directed more than 40 films for cinema and television, painting an extraordinarily rich and complex picture of 20th-century Germany throughout his work. The feature films offered in this Collector’s Box Set Vol. 1 attest to the director’s genius, while showing his combined consistency and diversity. From his first black and white thriller (Liebe ist kälter als der Tod) to his very personal homage to Contempt (Warnung vor einer heiligen Nutte) and his undisputed classics (Die bitteren Tränen der Petra von Kant, Angst essen Seele auf), discover seven cult works of RW Fassbinder’s cinema in splendid new restorations!
