Karkhana - R.W. Fassbinder’s Katzelmacher
Set in 1972, or perhaps the present, Karkhana traces the lives of employees in an office as they attempt to break out of their mundane routines with raging affairs (real and make believe), disco mob dances, violent confrontations, high octane gossip sessions and karaoke breaks.
