WINGS of DESIRE (1987)
Our second screening for our Cult Cinema Club Winter sessions is an arthouse cult classic. Directed by the one & only Wim Wenders, this is a fictional film set in a divided Berlin. The story follows two angels, Damiel and Cassiel, who silently observe the city’s inhabitants, listening to their thoughts and offering comfort. Despite their immortality, Damiel longs to experience human life—its sensory pleasures, emotions, and love.
