Overview
Germany in the fall of 1957: Lola, a sexy cabaret singer-prostitute exults in her power as a temptress of men, yet she wants out-- she wants money, home, and love. Pitting a corrupt structure professional against the new straight-arrow structure commissioner, Lola launches a shocking strategy to raise herself in a globe where whatever, as well as everybody, is for sale. Shot in childlike sweet shades, Fassbinder's homage to Josef von Sternberg's traditional The Blue Angel stands as a satiric homage to capitalism.
