A German filmmaker (Patrick Bauchau) summons his sound recorder friend (Rüdiger Vogler) to join him in Lisbon. When the latter arrives, his friend has disappeared, leaving a few cans of silent footage. The sound man will wander aimlessly through the streets of Lisbon recording sounds of the old city to match the images left by his friend. (official distributor synopsis)

While waiting for Antonioni (they were supposed to make Beyond the Clouds together), Wenders went to Lisbon to shoot one of the many symphonies of cities. It's a theme that we find in the 1920s in the USSR, Germany, and the Czech Republic, but I really don't feel that it suits the 1990s any better.
