Tilman Taube

Bill Diamond, a celebrated photographer, has spent a lifetime with people and things that, once they have disappeared, can never be brought back to life. In sleepless nights spent pouring over the faces in his photos, Bill spins yarns around the memories, fears and hopes the photos bring back, telling us about the photographer Mark and Jessi – the beast, and the beauty – the fairy tale of a fleeting instant.

An adaptation of Tennessee Williams' "The Lady Larkspur Lotion" created by Douglas Sirk with the assistance of his film students and Rainer Werner Fassbinder. It depicts the conflict between a dreamy, delusional heroine and her brusque, practical landlady, who wants to kick her out of her apartment.
