"In the Year of Thirteen Moons"
1979
Directed by Rainer Werner Fassbinder

One of Fassbinder's most unusual and daring films, In a Year of Thirteen Moons stars Erwin Spengler as a man desperately in love with his business partner. He decides to have a sex change operation, becomes Elvira, but this fails to attract the love of his beloved. Instead, the new "she" finds a series of damaging relationships and betrayals. Fassbinder uses harsh color, asymmetrical sets, a dissonant sound track and alternating narrative techniques to evoke the pain of Erwin/Elvira in a film that stretches the boundaries of conventional storytelling. Letterboxed. German with English subtitles.  124 minutes.

DVD includes an introduction by Richard Linklater; a commentary track by Fassbinder collaborator Juliane Lorenz; a conversation with Volker Spengler and Werner Schroeter; and liner notes by Robert Kolker.
