ALPHA CITY (1985)
"I have not seen daylight for three years."
A restless femme-fatale is the object of obsession for a callous killer and a piano player in this austere noir. An insomnious love-triangle set against a city without daylight and a night without end. The streets of Alpha City are stained with grime and the desperation of hopeless love.

THE LOFT (1985)
"You attended our exhibition,but not one of you paid any attention to our pictures.We are our pictures and they strike back when they're insulted."
Decadent, dispassionate violence in a neon-tinted fog of apocalyptic chaos. After attending an art exhibition held by anarchist punks, a yuppie couple on a "culture trip" is held captive. Humiliation, torture, and murder follow in this depraved conclusion to Schmidt's new wave horror trilogy.

DAS GOLD DER LIEBE (1983)
 "Alo?  Alo Kinder? "
Awaken by the call of the band D.A.F. (Deutsch Amerikanische Freundschaft), teenaged Patricia wanders the Viennese night, down neon-dripped streets filled with the dark lures of drugs, violence, and elusive love. More poetic and surreal than its’ detached predecessor, DAS GOLD DER LIEBE is a hallucinatory trip through a nightmarish Die Neue Deutsche Welle abyss. Filmed through a haze of drunken nights over the course of 10 days, DER GOLD DER LIEBE is a somnolent dream of new wave horror.

DER FAN (1982)
SATURDAY, JULY 29 – DJ BEN MARTIN 9:30PM
SCREENING STARTS AT 10PM
Teenage angst and obsession set to cold German synths, DER FAN is the absorbing tale of a teenage girl’s unwavering obsession with her popstar idol. When they meet, her obsession will lead to madness. An entrancing minimalist take on pure pop fanaticism, accompanied by Walkman. Shocking, sordid, ice-cold – meet your new cult favorite.
