Veronika Voss

Veronika Voss is a 1982 West German black-and-white drama directed by Rainer Werner Fassbinder, the second installment of his BRD Trilogy though the last one filmed, and his final film released before his death. It stars Rosel Zech as a morphine-addicted former film star in 1955 Munich who becomes involved with a sports journalist, who discovers she is being manipulated and financially drained by a corrupt neurologist supplying her addiction. Inspired by the real struggles of actress Sybille Schmitz and influenced by Billy Wilder's Sunset Boulevard, it won the Golden Bear at the 32nd Berlin International Film Festival.
