Rainer Werner Fassbinder directs and stars in this allegorical picture about Hans Boehm, a medieval shepherd who claims that the Virgin Mary has called him to start a revolution against the church and the upper class. Based on the true story of a shepherd who believed that he was a new messiah in 1476 and was subsequently burned at the stake, Fassbinder uses the tale to evoke the political and sexual turmoil of late 1960s Germany. Mixing the medieval with elements of other time periods, including postwar Germany, Fassbinder even goes so far as to don a leather jacket himself to play the black monk, a follower of Boehm's misguided messiah. A thoughtful examination of the ultimate fecklessness of his generation's revolt against the status quo, THE NIKLASHUASEN JOURNEY is an acerbic and witty critique of the culture of the late 1960s.DVD Features:Region 0Keep CaseFull FrameAudio: Mono - GermanInteractive Features: Scene Access Interactive Menus

Unfolding in alternating color and black-and-white, this prescient Peruvian drama tells the story of Santiago (Pietro Sibille, PROOF OF LIFE), a 23-year-old former soldier who has recently returned home after serving in the army. Haunted by his past and filled with pent-up rage and paranoia, he is increasingly alienated from his family and his young wife, and unsure of how to make his way in the world. Although he wants to pursue his education, he takes a job as a Lima taxi driver, while his friends and fellow ex-soldiers try to convince him to join them in a life of crime. When his equally violent brother`s girlfriend turns to him for help and possibly something more, Santiago finds himself on an inescapable path of destruction. Recalling Martin Scorcese`s TAXI DRIVER in its gritty portrayal of the effects of war on the individual psyche, DIAS DE SANTIAGO brings to light the crucial predicament of Peru`s
lost generation,
boys who became men under the auspices of war. DIAS DE SANTIAGO won numerous awards on the festival circuit.
