Water Drops on Burning Rocks:
Set in 1970s Germany, Leopold, a 50-year-old businessman, seduces 19-year-old Franz. They fall deeply in love and move in together. The rest of the movie focuses on the emotional turmoil that both endure as they grow apart, bickering over things of little importance. A twist halfway through the story adds a chaotic comic element, as Franz and Leopold are joined by their ex-girlfriends. "Water Drops on Burning Rocks" was adapted by writer/director Francois Ozon from a play called "Tropfen Auf Heisse Steine" that was written by German director Rainer Werner Fassbinder when he was 19 years old, but was never before produced. Ludivine Sagnier is superb as Anna, Franz's ex-girlfriend. This movie contains nude scenes.
