Aus dem Leben der Marionetten (1980)



An account of the events before and after a murder committed by Peter Egermann, a disturbed businessman in a strained marriage, and what led Peter to perform such a shocking act.

From memory: intense and puzzling chamber play switching between black-and-white and color and with extensive dream sequences.

Halliwell*: "A film somehow typical of its director, but far from his most interesting work."

Maltin***1/2: "Powerful, provocative drama..."
