Set in Berlin two years before the fall of the Wall, two angels watch as humans suffer tragedy and experience joy. And when one angel falls in love with a lonely trapeze artist, he decides to abandon immortality and experience the transience of life.
Wim Wenders’ poetic film is a contemplation of history, love and the meaning of existence.
‘Shot when the city seemed forever divided by the wall, this intensely romantic story of an angel who longs for human love is unlike any other.’ – The Guardian
Available as a 4-film Wim Wenders Spotlight pass with Alice in the Cities, Paris, Texas, and Tokyo-Ga. Learn more.
