From his film school work to his earliest attempts at flying solo as a filmmaker, Wenders' personal and artistic growth is profiled as he speaks openly of his relationship to his parents, his artistic vision, and his conflicted feelings for the fairer sex. An additional conversation with frequent Wenders collaborator Robby Mueller sheds illuminating light on the rift between skilled cinematographer and the passionate director. ~ Jason Buchanan, Rovi
