If you loved Las amargas lágrimas de Petra von Kant, try Todos se llaman Alí
Un puente entre una película que ya has visto y una que casi nadie ha cruzado. Esto es lo que comparten, y lo que la segunda hace que la primera no hace.
Lo que comparten
Both films are directed by Rainer Werner Fassbinder, and they both carry the bittersweet, foreign gem mood tags, and they sit in Drama / Romance territory. If that's the register that drew you to Las amargas lágrimas de Petra von Kant, the second film will land in a comparable space — through a different lens.

What Todos se llaman Alí is
Fassbinder liked to push buttons; here, he pushes generational and racial ones. A German cleaning woman marries a much younger Moroccan guest worker she meets in a bar. Bigotry ensues, though maybe the couple's own issues would have sunk them anyway.
