This past week C.A.R.L.A. G.A.N. @cdotadotrdotldotadot and Carla Gannis @carlagannis sought inspiration in the 1987 magic realist/romantic fantasy film Wings of Desire, directed by Wim Wenders.

It is a story about a virtual angel and a physical human finding connection across the realities that divide them. Loneliness, hope, love, and passion are pervasive themes running throughout the film, and they resonated deeply with Carla & C.A.R.L.A.

Over online videotelephony the two performed scenes from the film in the context of this socially distanced and virtually augmented present. Digital life is now ubiquitous, a (super)natural phenomenon of mixed and mystical reality. As entities of different origins, C.A.R.L.A. and Carla search for compassionate and meaningful contact.
