Fassbinder\u2019s queer corpus\u2014in particular,<em>&nbsp;In a Year of 13 Moons<\/em>&nbsp;(1978)\u2014will be reexamined in light of Ozon\u2019s adaptation of an early Fassbinder script for&nbsp;<em>Water Drops on Burning Rocks<\/em>&nbsp;(2002) and the more recent fictionalized biopic&nbsp;<em>Peter von Kant<\/em>&nbsp;(2022). Ozon\u2019s reception of Fassbinder will be read as both as an homage and as a site of contestation, as the later filmmaker engenders himself both in and against the earlier auteur\u2019s image and the genre of queer filmmaking it has come to epitomize.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Ian Fleishman is Chair of Cinema &amp; Media Studies University of Pennsylvania, where he holds a secondary appointment in Francophone, Italian and Germanic Studies and serves on the Executive Board of the Program in Gender, Sexuality &amp; Women\u2019s Studies.
