"Few films are so rich, so intriguing, or so ambitious."— Geoff Andrew, Time Out
Damiel (Bruno Ganz) is an angel perched atop buildings high over Berlin who can hear the thoughts—fears, hopes, dreams—of all the people living below. But when he falls in love with a beautiful trapeze artist, he is willing to give up his immortality and come back to earth to be with her. 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 (Roman Holiday), is one of cinema’s loveliest city symphonies—pure poetry from a modern master.
