An eagle swoops down onto a rock outcrop as a gaunt , sunburnt man wearing a blue suit and a red baseball cap emerges from the desert; he finds a tap but fails to draw water, then enters a bar and grabs a handful of ice before collapsing on the floor in a crumbled heap. Thus the enigmatic opening to Wim Wenders outstanding award winning film. At once a road movie, a voyage of self discovery and an essay on cultural differences, the film has become a landmark in European Cinema history.
