From Wikipedia:
Chinese Roulette (German: Chinesisches Roulette) is a 1976 West German film written and directed by Rainer Werner Fassbinder. It stars Margit Carstensen, Ulli Lommel, and Anna Karina. The film, a bleak psychological drama, climaxes with a truth-guessing game, which gives the film its title. The plot follows a bourgeois married couple whose infidelities are exposed by their disabled child.
The film was distributed by Filmverlag der Autoren. On the poster, German artist Petrus Wandrey shows the back view of a girl on crutches, levitating, and looking in the direction of a bright light in the cloudy sky ahead. The Surrealist scene is framed by multiple wooden doors. For the typography, Wandrey worked with Alexandra.
