On the occasion of a new film version of Berlin Alexanderplatz by Burhan Qurbani, we’ve revisited Rainer Werner Fassbinder’s “monument of late 20th-century filmmaking”, his 15 hour plus miniseries, made for German TV in 1980. In addition to streaming it for free for two weeks, we’ve asked two experts to give us some background on the novel by Alfred Döblin and Fassbinders’s interpretation. Here are film critic, researcher, and video essayist Johannes Binotto from Zurich and history professor and Weimar culture specialist Peter Jelavich.
