Directed by Wim Wenders
With Harry Dean Stanton, Dean Stockwell, Hunter Carson

Wim Wenders’ sublime, Palme d’Or-winning road movie traverses the mythic landscapes of the American Southwest as Harry Dean Stanton’s amnesiac desert drifter sets out from Texas to California in search of his estranged wife (Nastassja Kinski). The indelible, near-wordless performance from Stanton; dusty, neon-soaked cinematography by Robby Müller; and masterfully minimalist screenplay by Sam Shepard come together in an aching meditation on lost love and longing.
