Few filmmakers have enjoyed a decade quite so diverse or quite so prolific as Rainer Werner Fassbinder did during the seventies.

Amid the likes of The Bitter Tears of Petra von Kant and Fear Eats the Soul, it's easy to forget some of the lesser-known and more singular works, two of which are presented here.

Fox and His Friends (1975) is among the director's most personal works and the first to tackle homosexuality in a direct manner. Fassbinder himself plays Fox, a sweet working class soul whose relationship with wealthy industrialist Eugen, he discovers, is based almost wholly on his unexpected lottery win. When his money runs out, so does any affection, with tragic consequences.
Chinese Roulette (1976), set in an isolated house during a weekend break, is like Agatha Christie's And Then There Were None without the murders a tense psychodrama in which infidelities are revealed and families breakdown. At its centre is nouvelle vague icon Anna Karina, a rare outsider alongside the familiar Fassbinder faces.

Step back into the bizarre, manic and outrageous world of Tittybangbang - a woman's, woman's, woman's world that don't mean a thing without a little bit of seepage. This outrageous collection of characters includes returning favourites like the shy Italian Cleaning Lady ("Don't look at me.

I'm so shy, it's boring."); Maxine Bendix, the seeping queen of cosmetic surgery, and Paula the Twitching Darter ("Right there!"). Frustrated bachelor Don Peacock still seeks a little chit chat, a little tittle-tattle and of course, a little pee-pee; the semi-naked Harrogate Ladies leave the comfort of their dining room for a camping holiday and stately-home stewards Trina and Jean continue to silently bash the living daylights out of each other. These well-known faces are joined by new characters including horsey blonde Veronica Cooper enjoying her favourite outdoor pursuit; Jackie and her exceptionally gullible mate Nikki; Barnsley's first Vampire Slayers and some very salty tales from a storm-blasted village in Scotland. Then there's elegant older-lady Mrs Baxter who laments the lack of fights in her poxy 'hood; the Duck and Chips Family; and, amazingly, a world-famous movie megastar sampling the traditional delights of England.
