Plus, eat your way through the city via Plate of Nations and Seattle Restaurant Week (check out our picks here). Read on for more top events of the week.
MONDAY
FILM
Fox and His Friends
Director Rainer Werner Fassbinder plumbs the messy depths of love and money in this cynical flick. Fassbinder cast himself as Fox, an impressionable working-class fellow whose upper-class boyfriend, Max, attempts to swindle him out of a lottery win. The film’s contentious depiction of gay communities in ’70s Germany offers a stylish but misery-ridden social commentary.
