Baal is a 1970 West German drama film that explores the cult of the genius, following poet and anarchist Baal (Rainer Werner Fassbinder) as he lives on the fringe of bourgeois morality, rejecting societal norms in favor of his own anti-heroic lifestyle. As Baal navigates the complexities of relationships with women and men, he is ultimately consumed by his own darkness, leading to a tragic downfall.
