Bagdad Café

  • West Germany Out of Rosenheim

Plots(1)

Drawn to a pair of lights in the barren American desert sky, a mysterious German woman, Jasmin, stumbles upon a dilapidated motel/diner in the middle of nowhere. Her unusual appearance and demeanor are at first suspicious to Brenda, the exasperated owner who has difficulty making ends meet. But when an unlikely magic sparks between the two women, this lonely desert outpost is transformed into a thriving and popular oasis. (official distributor synopsis)

English With its diverse characters, tense situations and lots of interesting inserted cuts, Badgad Café offers a funny and sweet clash of cultures at an inconspicuous motel in the Nevada desert. Watching this movie with a cosmopolitan audience at the beach cinema in Cannes felt like a very pleasant celebration of life through film. [Cannes] ()
