Wings of desire. by Ganz, Bruno,actor.; Kanopy (Firm);
Originally produced by Criterion Collection/Janus Films in 1987.Wings of desire is one of cinema's loveliest city symphonies. Bruno Ganz is Damiel, an angel perched atop buildings high over Berlin who can hear the thoughts, fears, hopes, dreams, of all the people living below.

Made not long before the fall of the Berlin wall, this stunning tapestry of sounds and images, shot in black and white and color by the legendary Henri Alekan, is movie poetry.
