Synopsis

Only few days before filming commences on a TV adaptation of RW Fassbinder's The Bitter Tears of Petra von Kant, the lead role has yet to be cast, with auditions continuing at a furious pace. Though the producer and crew become increasingly anxious, director Vera remains unwilling to compromise while Gerwin, a line reader, is hopeful of finding a role in the production. As for the actors, channelling the themes of Fassbinder's film, they start exploiting their powers.

No upcoming screenings.
