Story

A portrait of a traumatised nation: America after 9/11. Having witnessed a crime, the idealist Lana (Michelle Williams) and her uncle, Paul (John Diehl), a Vietnam vet, join forces to see that justice is done. Their quest becomes a journey into the nation’s mentality – between hysterical paranoia and naive optimism. Wenders has referred to this as being his “perhaps most decidedly political film.”

Director

With films like Paris, Texas (1984), Wings Over Berlin (1987), Buena Vista Social Club (1999) or The Salt of the Earth (2014) WIM WENDERS (*1945) is one of Germany's leading directors. For 15 years, he taught film as a professor at the University of Fine Arts in Hamburg.
