Short description

Wilhelm is a detached man who wishes to become a writer. To encourage him to experience life, his mother provides a ticket to Bonn. During his journey, he meets a mute teenage acrobat named Mignon and an older man who competed in the 1936 Olympics. As Wilhelm travels through Germany, he interacts with various people, including an actress and another young man, while struggling to find the words he seeks.

Directed by Wim Wenders, this drama is the second of 22 films in the director's career, following Alice in the Cities and preceding The American Friend. The screenplay was written by Peter Handke. The movie stars Rüdiger Vogler as Wilhelm, alongside Hans Christian Blech, Hanna Schygulla, Nastassja Kinski, Peter Kern, and Ivan Desny.

The film holds a rating of 6.7 on TMDB based on 99 votes. This audience score is higher than the rating given by film critics, who rated the movie 4.8 based on 7 reviews.

What's left behind the scenes

  • The cinematic debut of Nastassja Kinski (who played Mignon), whom the wife of Wim Wenders (the film's director and performer of a cameo role) met at a disco in Munich.
  • The second collaboration between director Wim Wenders and his friend, screenwriter Peter Handke. Handke wrote this script two years after the death of his mother, who committed suicide. This explains the film's somber atmosphere.
