In answer to Question 2: The Fassbinder play is called "Der Mull, die Stadt und der Tod" in German; "Garbage, the City and Death" in English. The play was written in 1975, and published by Suhrkamp in 1976. The play was made into a film, directed by Daniel Schmid, under the title of "Schatten der Engel", released in 1979. New German Critique has documented controversies around the play.
