The world according to Wim Wenders

Wim Wenders once wrote that the “greatest inspirations for all of my films have always been places”, and his work is testimony to a cinematic oeuvre in which location is the star. His films are anchored to their geographies – from Wings of Desire (1987), set in Cold War-era Berlin, to the desert wasteland in which Harry Dean Stanton wanders in Paris, Texas (1984) and Pina, his 2011 documentary about the German dance company that was filmed all over Wuppertal.
