The Point of View of Angels: Unattainable Objectivity in Wim Wenders' 'Wings of Desire'

In this dissertation I discuss how Wim Wenders' attempt to create a perfectly objective film, or to use the film to portray objectivity, failed and will always fail because cinema is an inherently subjective experience not only in watching but in creation. This notion is particularly important to the film 'Wings of Desire' as it explores the world from the point of view of angels. Wenders intended these to be objective unbiased lenses for the viewers to watch the world through. Yet they fail to be objective for many reasons, the most prominent being the director's life experience being inserted into the script and thus following the philosophical view of determinism, and the cinematography portraying human-like and flawed emotions and thus failing to capture documentary-like, unbiased footage, failing to be an all-seeing eye.
