THE BEAUTIFUL DAYS OF ARANJUEZ

THE BEAUTIFUL DAYS OF ARANJUEZ

A beautiful summer´s day. A garden. A terrace. A woman and a man sit at a table beneath the trees. A conversation unfolds about sexual experiences, childhood memories, the essence of summer and the differences between men and women. It illustrates both, feminine perspective and masculine perception.

With THE BEAUTIFUL DAYS OF ARANJUEZ, Wim Wenders stages the play by his longtime friend Austrian author Peter Handke.
