A meditative documentary essay where renowned filmmakers contemplate cinema's mortality and future in intimate, unscripted monologues.

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?"
