Rainer Werner Fassbinder
The New German Cinema movement, a period which lasted from the sixties until the eighties, saw filmmakers such as Werner Herzog, Margarethe von Trotta, Wim Wenders and Helma Sanders-Brahms rise to prominence both in West Germany and internationally. One of the key directors of this movement was, without a doubt, Rainer Werner Fassbinder. He helmed over 40 feature films and a 13 hour television series before his tragic death at the age of 37. Triskel Arts Centre presents a small sample of this incredible artist’s work with a selection of four of his films.
