BRD Trilogy The BRD Trilogy (German: "BRD-Trilogie" ) consists of three films directed by Rainer Werner Fassbinder: "The Marriage of Maria Braun" (1979), "Veronika Voss" (1982), and "Lola" (1981). The films are connected in a thematic rather than in a narrative sense. All three deal with different characters (though some actors recur in different roles) and plotlines, but each one focuses on the story of a specific woman in West Germany after World War II. The three letter acronym "BRD" stands for "Bundesrepublik Deutschland", the official name of West Germany and of the united contemporary Germany.
