Combining influences from Hollywood's cacophonous violence to painting and music, Wim Wenders creates an unforgettable cult '90s film that remains unclassifiable and partly prophetic. It stars Gabriel Byrne, Bill Pullman and Andy McDowell.
Synopsis
A producer has made a fortune through the violent adventures he's filming, but he will find himself held captive in enemy hands and reassess his role in them. After his escape, he will find refuge and soon retire from Hollywood to live with his new guardians. Meanwhile, a government official uses an elaborate network of cameras to spy on Los Angeles, but must explain himself to his superiors.
