LISBON STORY
Wim Wenders' 14th film is a tribute to the city of Lisbon and a bow to film history, on whose 100th birthday it was made. The soundtrack made the group Madredeus world famous. The magic of light guides us through the white city on the Tagus and the sounds of fado echo our steps through Alfama. Wim Wenders has created a tribute to Lisbon, the European Capital of Culture in 1994, and a tribute to the world of sound.
