Episode #175: "Ich bin ein engel" | Wings of Desire (1988)

The divide between East and West is meaningless when you're an angel. You can come and go, observing humanity throughout the course of eternity... until the day you decide you want to become one of them. This one is the classic German film of an angel who decides to give up eternity for a chance at love and humanity: Wings of Desire (Der Himmel über Berlin).
