Film Report: Wings of Desire (1987)Wings of Desire (1987), by Wim Wenders is a French-German fantasy romantic film which depicts the lives of those who populated Berlin during the the era of Franco and the Berlin Wall which separated West and East Germany. In the film, reality is separated into two dimensions in which humans and angels are isolated from each other and exist on separate planes of existence. The angels look down on the people of Berlin and try to comfort those in distress; However, due to their separate existences, angels cannot influence the actions of the human world. Wenders noticeably connects the separation of existence between angels and humans in Wings of Desire with the isolation felt by the residents of West and East Berlin with his use of acting style, calibration colors and symbolism.
