Deluxe CD/DVD release of the 1984 German cult film featuring William S. Burroughs, Genesis P-Orridge (Throbbing Gristle), FM Einheit (Einsturzende Neubauten), Christiane F, the prolific underground film star Bill Rice, etc. Never before on DVD! Dual layer DVD features include a beautiful color-rich transfer of the film with newly translated English subtitles, the original trailer, a slide show of 75 still production photos by Ilse Ruppert, an Italian documentary about the film, a 25-minute audio interview with filmmaker Klaus Maeck, rare footage of Derek Jarman visiting Burroughs on set, and Berlin riot news footage used in the film with a music loop by Genesis P-Orridge commissioned specially for this DVD release! The soundtrack CD features SOFT CELL, early EINSTURZENDE NEUBAUTEN, MATT JOHNSON (THE THE), DAVE BALL and GENESIS P-ORRIDGE, and WILLIAM BURROUGHS (a lot of the music on the CD is not in the film and vice versa).
