When a man (Harry Dean Stanton) returns from the desert after a mysterious four-year absence, he travels with his son (Hunter Carson) to find the boy’s mother (Nastassja Kinski), who works in a Houston peep show.
Wim Wenders’ heartbreaking look at the loneliness and dislocation of modernity, with its haunting slide guitar soundtrack by Ry Cooder, won the Palme d’Or at Cannes.
‘Wim Wenders’ iconic vision of American alienation, starring Stanton as a weatherbeaten drifter, has held its mystery for 40 years.’ – The Guardian

Presented on 35mm film prints from the NFSA collection.
