Accepted to be one of Wim Wenders’ most poignant films and often compared to Chaplin’s The Kid, Alice in the Cities was the first of Wim Wenders’ films to be shot in part in the United States and subsequently won the 1974 German Critics Prize.

Phillip (R?diger Vogler) is a roving German reporter who, after a chance encounter with an elusive American woman, reluctantly accepts temporary custody of little Alice (Yella Rottl?nder).

Their friendship grows while traveling through various European cities on a search for the girl’s grandmother. Inventive and witty, Wenders reflects on the influences of American pop culture on postwar Europe.

Alice in the Cities was the first of Wenders’ “road” trilogy.
The follow-ups were:

Wrong Move (1975) and Kings of the Road (1976), both starring R?diger Vogler.
