German filmmaker Rainer Werner Fassbinder directs the made-for-TV melodrama Pioneers in Ingolstadt, based on the play by Marieluise Fleisser. The film opens as a parade of soldiers are marching through a town square singing patriotic songs. Alma (Irm Hermann) and Berta (Hanna Schygulla) are watching them and musing about their ideas on men and relationships. The soldiers (often referred to as pioneers) have been given the task of building a bridge in the town. Alma seems to understand that the soldiers only want her for short sexual encounters, so she's prepared to live her life accordingly. Meanwhile, romantic Berta falls in love with self-centered soldier Karl (Harry Baer), who all but tells her to get lost. The soldiers get drunk and beat up a random passerby. The women grow to hate Alma for her acceptance of life as a sex object. Naïve Berta is ultimately humiliated.

Volker Schlöndorff transposes Bertolt Brecht’s late-expressionist work to latter-day 1969. Poet and anarchist Baal lives in an attic and reads his poems to cab drivers. At first feted and later rejected by bourgeois society, Baal roams through forests and along motorways, greedy for schnapps, cigarettes, women and men: ‘You have to let out the beast, let him out into the sunlight.’ After impregnating a young actress he soon comes to regard her as a millstone round his neck. He stabs a friend to death and dies alone. ‘You are useless, mangy and wild, you beast, you crawl through the lowest boughs of the tree.’

파스빈더 자신의 동명연극을 영화로 만든 작품. ‘카첼마허’는 지중해 연안에서 독일로 이민 온 노동자를 가리키는 말이다. 뮌헨 변두리에서 무기력하게 살아가던 한 무리의 젊은이들은 그리스인 노동자 요르고스의 출현으로 변화를 맞이하게 된다. 남자들은 이방인을 적대하며 요르고스에게 집단폭력을 휘두르지만, 여자들은 그에게 복잡한 감정을 느낀다. 요르고스는 자신에게 호의를 보이는 마리에게 사랑을 느끼고 그녀를 고향에 데려갈 꿈을 꾼다. 뮌헨 변두리를 배경으로 독일사회의 경직성과 활력 없음을 보여주는 동시에, 사랑의 종속-착취 관계를 그려낸 작품. 단조로운 화면과 반복적인 행동, 소통되지 못하는 단속적인 대사들을 통해 위축된 소시민의 삶을 차갑게 그리고 있다.

Three sequences are linked together in this short film by Straub; the first sequence is a long tracking shot from a car of prostitutes plying their trade on the night-time streets of Germany; the second is a staged play, cut down to 10 minutes by Straub and photographed in a single take; the final sequence covers the marriage of James and Lilith, and Lilith’s subsequent execution of her pimp, played by Rainer Werner Fassbinder. "The film is a look entirely at Western decadence" - Jean-Marie Straub.
