In Danger and Dire Distress the Middle of the Road Leads to Death

Drama
★ 5.0/10 TMDB 1974-12-18 86 min

Combining fictional and documentary modes, the film takes a critical stance toward Frankfurt's public sphere and urban redevelopment. Despite the serious formal and political concerns of the film, Kluge's heightened sense of the absurd safeguards a reserve of utopian optimism.
