“Spectacle Theater wants you to witness this beautiful trailer and book your tickets for M FOR MISERY: 4 FILMS BY ULI M SCHUEPPEL 
Spectacle Theater is proud to present four films by the prolific provocative poet, Uli M Schueppel, which includes two music documentaries, the infamous Nick Cave tour film from 1987, “The Road to God Knows Where”, the meta-textual ELEKTROKOHLE (VON WEGEN)/ OFF WAYS on Einstürzende Neubauten and their historic return to the GDR & two early narrative films, the post-apocalyptic experimental feature NIHIL starring Blixa Bargeld of Einstürzende Neubauten & the 1992 poetic feature on fatherhood & the fall of the Berlin wall, VATERLAND scored by Mick Harvey.
Hanging out in West Berlin in the 1980’s meant collaborating with friends such as Nick Cave, Mick Harvey, Blixa Bargeld and Alexander Hacke, and directing some of the most interesting music documentaries of that era. Music films that were more akin to political manifestos and intimate capsules of a decade long forgotten than what typically accounts for a concert film or portrait of an artist.
These four films are bold in their creative expression of misery, sound, artistry and the human condition, and feature incredible musicality represented in the poetic style of the editing and the singular scores by Mick Harvey, Alexander Haacke, Nick Cave & The Bad Seeds & EinstĂĽrzende Neubauten.
