Faraway, So Close!
“Your favorite Angels are back!”
DramaFantasyRomance
A group of angels look longingly upon the life of humans. Berlin now is a very different place: unified in name but overrun with crime, corruption, and—in what turns out to be a key theme here—Americans.
VIBE
A contemplative, melancholic dive into urban ennui and the search for meaning. Angels grapple with human desires and the gritty realities of post-reunification Berlin, blurring the lines between the divine and the mundane.
