Bagdad Cafe: The Percy Adlon Collection

Celebrate the work of acclaimed filmmaker Percy Adlon with this three-film collection of his most beloved works.

In the award-winning Bagdad Cafe, Jasmin (Marianne Sägebrecht) discovers an oasis of friendship and community in the desert in the form of the titular café and its proprietor Brenda (CCH Pounder). A quirky and touching comedy-drama with tremendously heartfelt performances from Sägebrecht, Pounder, and Jack Palance, Bagdad Cafe remains one of the standout independent films of the ’80s.

Marianne Sägebrecht also takes center stage in Adlon’s Sugarbaby and Rosalie Goes Shopping, with the three films serving as an unofficial trilogy and a tremendous showcase of the director’s and actress’s talents for creating uncommon stories and unforgettable characters in everyday places.
