Plot:

In a city teeming with life, two angels, Damiel and Cassiel, silently traverse the streets of Berlin, taking in the sights and sounds while offering unseen solace to those they encounter. These celestial beings have an otherworldly perspective on humanity, observing from afar as they bestow hope upon the distressed without ever engaging in human affairs. However, when Damiel discovers a deep connection with trapeze artist Marion and her lonely existence, he begins to question his role and longs for a chance to experience life among mortals.As Damiel grapples with his newfound feelings and desire for human connection, he finds an unlikely ally in reclusive actor Peter Falk, who shares his knowledge of the world and offers guidance on how one can transcend the barriers between angels and humans. Caught between his divine nature and a yearning to live as a mortal, Damiel must navigate this newfound opportunity to experience life beyond the confines of his celestial existence, all while grappling with the consequences that such a decision may bring.
