Laibach - Kohle Is Brot (Live @ Coal Mining Museum of Slovenia, Velenje 19/10/12)

On 19 October 2012 Laibach held two special concerts in the Coal Mining Museum of Slovenia in Velenje. For the first time in its history, the band performed nearly 200 m underground. At this unique event, titled Kohle ist Brot (Coal is Bread) Laibach played a selection of their industrial songs from the early ’80s. Visitors were escorted to the performing space 200 m below the surface with the oldest - still functioning - lift in Slovenia.

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?

Ulli Lommel - Bruno
Hanna Schygulla - Johanna
Katrin Schaake - Dame im Zug
Liz Soellner - Zeitungsverkäuferin
Gisela Otto - 1. Prostituierte
Ursula Strätz - Fette Prostituierte
Monika Nüchtern - Kellnerin beim Türken (as Monika Stadler)
Hans Hirschmüller - Peter
Les Olvides - Georges
Peer Raben - Jürgen (as Wil Rabenbauer)
Howard Gaines - Raoul
Peter Moland - Leiter des Syndikatsverhörs
Kurt Raab - Aufsichtsperson im Kaufhaus
Peter Berling - Illegaler Waffenhändler
Anastassios Karalas - Türke

Fassbinder's character's name in the film, Franz Biberkopf, is the same as that of the main character in Alfred Döblin's novel, Berlin Alexanderplatz. Fassbinder included many references to this work and eventually created a miniseries out of it..
