He was 27 years old when he adapted his own stage play The Bitter Tears of Petra von Kant, in which all the characters are women, for the silver screen. It is a film of inner events. A drama about codependencies interdependences, as well as slow-burning relationships. A film that is kept moving by small gestures, colours and hesitatingly delivered sentences. It is not easy to forget about it.
The Bitter Tears of Petra von Kant takes place in a single space: Petra von Kant's flat. But this space is anything but simple. That, however, is how it seems at first. Petra von Kant is a fashion designer, and the details of the apartment (fashion illustrations, mannequins) seem to indicate this. As does the fact that the protagonist of the story, Petra von Kant (Margit Carstensen), is constantly changing her clothes, appearing in a series of different wigs. Then we slowly realize that the games with colours, sewing patterns, wigs and make-up are creating an independent layer of meaning in the film. The camera continuously discovers significant elements - sometimes in the background. And it becomes clear that, compared to the original work for the stage, the motion picture can do something quite shocking. It is able to capture touch. And the lack of touching as well. And how the sometimes silent sentences and hesitant human roles become complete when two hands or bodies meet. A perfect example of this is the taciturn Marlene (Irm Hermann), who seems to have stepped into Fassbinder's world from a German expressionist film. And we haven't even mentioned the performance by Hanna Schygulla, who had already been playing key roles in Fassbinder's films for years. No one should anticipate seing any digital tricks. Half a century ago, they still believed in the power of having people portrayed by people.
