Martha
Drama from 1974 Rainer Werner Fassbinder
Margit Carstensen Karlheinz Böhm.
Margit Carstensen stars as a young woman who finds herself slowly stripped of her
freedom by her sadistic and tyrannical husband. Fassbinder's bold homage to
Douglas Sirk's 1950s Technicolor melodramas finds him at his most wickedly
perverse and stylistically assured.
