Wings of Desire

Wings Of Desire is Wim Wenders' much-loved hymn to a divided Berlin. Damiel and Cassiel are a pair of trenchcoated angels who watch over the city, silently comforting its citizens in their hour of need. But captivated by a beautiful French trapeze artist, Damiel (Bruno Ganz) decides to trade his gentle, angelic life for the torturous emotions of human life. Awarded Best Director at Cannes, Wings Of Desire heralds a truly modern European cinema. Painstakingly restored, this magnificent film is presented for the first time as it was originally intended.
