Event Details

Lola (1981, 113 min) is, inarguably, one of the high points of latter-period RW Fassbinder – and one of the last movies made by the prolific and talented German director, who died in 1982.
The setting is a corrupt small town in West Germany during the 1950s. Schukert (Mario Adorf), a prosperous building contractor, is at the heart of a city hall scheme to make some big money off land they have purchased over the years. His project is nearly thwarted by Von Bohn (Armin Mueller-Stahl), the newly appointed commissioner who is very proper and morally upright.
German Original with English subs.
Free Entrance.
