If you loved Alice in the Cities, try Wings of Desire
A bridge between a film you've already seen and one most people haven't. Here's what they share, and what the second one does that the first one doesn't.
What they share
Both films are directed by Wim Wenders, and they both carry the bittersweet, foreign gem, slow burn, tender mood tags, and they sit in Drama territory. If that's the register that drew you to Alice in the Cities, the second film will land in a comparable space — through a different lens.

What Wings of Desire is
Berlin, late autumn, a solitary trapeze artist's swing. Two angels watch over the city's inhabitants, their presence a gentle hum, until one of them becomes entranced by the trapeze artist's solitude. Wenders grounds the fantastical in the poetic rhythms of everyday life.
