In the 1970s, Wim Wenders was among the first true international breakthrough artists of the revolutionary New German Cinema movement, a filmmaker whose fascination with the physical landscapes and emotional contours of the open road proved to be universal. In the middle of that decade, Wenders embarked on a three-film journey that took him from the wide roads of Germany to the endless highways of the United States and back again. Each starring Rüdiger Vogler as the director’s alter ego, Alice in the Cities, Wrong Move, and Kings of the Road are dramas of emotional transformation that follow their characters’ searches for themselves, all rendered with uncommon soulfulness and visual poetry.

Ray's original intent is to make a fiction film about a dying painter who sails to China to find a cure for his disease. He and Wenders discuss this idea, but it is obviously unrealistic given Ray's state of health.

Un beau jour d’été. Un jardin. Une terrasse. Une femme et un homme sous les arbres, avec un vent d’été doux. Au loin, dans la vaste plaine, la silhouette de Paris. Un dialogue commence, des questions et des réponses entre la femme et l’homme. Il s’agit d’expériences sexuelles, d’enfance, de souvenirs, de l’essence de l’été et de ce qui différencie les hommes et les femmes, la perspective féminine et la perception masculine. Derrière, dans la maison qui donne sur la terrasse, sur la femme et l’homme: l’écrivain, en train d’imaginer ce dialogue et de le taper à la machine. Ou est-ce l’inverse? Seraient-ce les deux personnages, là dehors, qui lui racontent ce qu’il couche sur le papier: un ultime et long dialogue entre un homme et une femme?
