With a disquieting soundtrack, adventurous mise en scène, and a committed central performance, Fassbinder’s two-part sci-fi television film majestically paints a portrait of Fred Stiller, a scientist involved with a project to develop a computer generated alternative reality, which would be used to predict consumer habits, as he begins to question his very own existence.
