The Goethe-Institut Boston is proud to present Rainer Werner Fassbinder’s Berlin Alexanderplatz, a monument of late 20th-century filmmaking and is seen by many as the consummate expression of film giant Rainer Werner Fassbinder´s vision of humanity. Produced in 1980 for German TV, the miniseries will be screened in 13 parts and an epilogue and is available online over a two-week period, from March 12-26 and is available to viewers in the US only.
All films are presented with English subtitles.
