 '''Peefeeyatko''' is a 1991, 60-minute German (but English-language) documentary about Frank Zappa, written and directed by [[Henning Lohner]]. It focuses mostly on his techniques and perspective regarding composition. Apart from interviews with Zappa himself, there are also interviews with [[John Cage]], [[Matt Groening]], [[Pierre Boulez]], [[Bob Stone]], [[Karlheinz Stockhausen]], [[Iannis Xenakis]], [[Diva Zappa]], Ray Wallis and Van Theodore Carlson.
-The interviews are intercut with archive footage, both from Zappa's concerts, the film ''[[200 Motels (The Film)|200 Motels]]'', old [[Monster Movies]], a documentary about Bigfoot and atmospheric scenes set to either Zappa's music, or environmental sounds (in the tradition of [[John Cage]]), like a memorable moment where somebody preparing sizzling chunks of meat on a kitchen stove, while on a TV set nearby [[George H.W. Bush]] is giving a speech from the Oval Office. The DVD release of ''Peefeeyatko'' also adds ''[[Ein Leben Als Extravaganza - Das Genie Frank Zappa]]'' as bonus material.
