The programmer’s eye

In 1978, in response to the tragic end of the adventure of the murderous Baader Band, German filmmakers including Edgar Reitz, Fassbinder and Volker Schlöndorff make a skit movie to comment on the electric air of the time. The segment of RWF is an angry self-fiction where he mixes his troubled life (creation, drugs, arguments) with the news. A "Live my life" larger than life.
