Wings of Desire

In Wim Wenders’ iconic Wings of Desire, two angels, Damiel and Cassiel, glide through the streets of a divided Berlin, observing the bustling population. When Damiel falls in love with lonely trapeze artist Marion, the angel longs to experience life in the physical world. Featuring a showstopping performance by a young Nick Cave, crooning the title track from From Her to Eternity, Wings of Desire is one of the most inexhaustible modern films.
