Movie Description
Rainer Werner Fassbinder directs and stars in this allegorical picture about Hans Boehm, a medieval shepherd who claims that the Virgin Mary has called him to start a revolution against the church and the upper class. Based on the true story of a shepherd who believed that he was a new messiah in 1476 and was subsequently burned at the stake, Fassbinder uses the tale to evoke the political and sexual turmoil of late 1960s Germany. Mixing the medieval with elements of other time periods, including postwar Germany, Fassbinder even goes so far as to don a leather jacket himself to play the "black monk", a follower of Boehm's misguided messiah. A thoughtful examination of the ultimate fecklessness of his generation's revolt against the status quo, THE NIKLASHUASEN JOURNEY is an acerbic and witty critique of the culture of the late 1960s.
