The subtitle of Jean-Marie Straub and Danièle Huillet’s first feature, from 1965, “Only Violence Helps Where Violence Reigns,” suggests the fierce political program evoked by their rigorous aesthetic. The pretext of the film, set in Cologne, is Heinrich Böll’s novel “Billiards at Half Past Nine,” which they strip down to a handful of stark events and film with a confrontational angularity akin to Bartók’s music that adorns the soundtrack. The subtlest of cues accompany the story’s complex flashbacks. The middle-aged Robert Fähmel tells a young hotel bellhop of persecutions under the Third Reich| his elderly father, Heinrich, an architect famed for a local abbey, recalls the militarism of the First World War, when his wife, Johanna, incurred trouble for insulting the Kaiser. A third-generation Fähmel is considering architecture, just as the exiled brother of Robert’s late wife, returns, only to be met by their former torturer, now a West German official taking part in a celebratory parade of war veterans. Straub and Huillet make the layers of history live in the present tense, which they judge severely. The tamped-down acting and the spare, tense visual rhetoric suggest a state of moral crisis as well as the response—as much in style as in substance—that it demands.。两年前，巴西圣保罗。Edgar和女友Julia在车上调情闯红灯，将Walter的妻子和七岁儿子撞死，在贿赂州议员之后才得以身免牢狱之灾，在经过在美国Miami休整之后，Edgar卷土重来，目标直指贪腐政客。发源于地球的篮球运动已成为全宇宙性的体育项目，顶端则是“宇宙联盟”称霸。但在其中活跃的明星球员却没有地球人的踪影，全是些身体能力居高的外星人。为地球篮球的未来忧虑的神秘老人·吉宗组建了一支聚集最强地球人的队伍，计划进军宇宙联盟的阵地。为此计划被派遣到全世界的星探由此出现在了主人公·秀吉居住的殖民地街道上。性格中虽有不稳定因素，但秀吉从14岁时起就以拔尖的速度和跳跃能力为人赞许，于是顺利成为地球选拔队的一员。从此，秀吉和像这样聚集在一起、个性各异的地球最强成员们一起，向和宇宙联盟参战的目标而努力……。
