Rainer Werner Fassbinder - Liebe ist kälter als der Tod (1969)

Love is Colder than Death (German: Liebe — kälter als der Tod) is a 1969 German film directed by Rainer Werner Fassbinder. In Fassbinder's first feature film, he features as the petty hood, Franz Biberkopf. Biberkopf's friend, portrayed by actor Ulli Lommel, has been ordered to kill Franz by a crime syndicate. The cinematographer Dietrich Lohmann and the cast as an ensemble won an award at the German Film Awards in 1970.
The reception was generally negative, and the film was even booed at the 19th Berlin International Film Festival in 1969. Today, it is seen as a fine example of Fassbinder's early style, with a heavy 'nouvelle vague' influence.
The film is dedicated to "Claude Chabrol, Éric Rohmer, Jean-Marie Straub, Linio and Cuncho". The last two are characters in Damiano Damiani's 1966 film Quien sabe?
