Lesson plan
Wrong Move
Wrong Move ( – "False Movement") is a 1975 German road movie directed by Wim Wenders. This was the second part of Wenders' "Road Movie trilogy" which included Alice in the Cities (1974) and Kings of the Road (1976). With long carefully composed shots characteristic of Wenders' work, the story follows the wanderings of an aspiring young writer, Wilhelm Meister, as he explores his native country, encounters its people and starts defining his vocation. His thoughts are occasionally presented in voice-over. The work is a rough adaption of Johann Wolfgang von Goethe's 1795–96 novel Wilhelm Meister's Apprenticeship, an early example of the Bildungsroman or novel of initiation. In June 2026, Wenders said he would block future access to the film after years of appeals from actress Nastassja Kinski, who was filmed topless when she was 13.
