Gray City

During the 1982 Cannes Film Festival, Wim Wenders asked a number of global film directors to, one at a time, go into a hotel room, turn on the camera, and answer a simple question: "What is the future of cinema?"

On location in Portugal, a film crew runs out of film while making their own version of Roger Corman's The Day the World Ended (1956). The producer is nowhere to be found and director Munro attempts to find him in hopes of being able to finish the film.

Wim Wenders's atmospheric testimony about the problems he encountered while working on HAMMET(1982) with Francis Ford Coppola, and the differences between the film-making process in Europe and the States.
