Museum of Fine Arts, Houston presents the Wim Wenders: Portraits Along the Road series.

The Museum is pleased to participate in the international celebration of talented German filmmaker, Wim Wenders, taking advantage of new digital restorations.

First earning an international reputation as a cofounder of the New German Cinema movement in the 1970s, his remarkable filmography since then includes award-winning features and documentaries. His classic road trilogy screens in February, and will be followed by more films during 2016.

Wrong Move (Falsche Bewegung)
Directed by Wim Wenders
1975, in German with Englsh subtitles
West German
103 minutes

Based on Johann Wolfgang von Goethe’s Wilhelm Meister’s Apprenticeship, Wilhelm Meister (Rüdiger Vogler) hopes to become an author and broaden his horizons on a journey away from home, which his mother (Marianne Hoppe) gives him permission to make.

But the Wilhelm of Wrong Move must arrive at the painful recognition that a journey alone no longer leads to the desired goal.

Along the way he encounters a street singer struggling with his Nazi past, a mute girl (Nastassja Kinski in her first role), a poet, and an actress (Hanna Schygulla).
