Wim Wenders has had a very good year, earning strong reviews out of Cannes for “Perfect Days” before the film was selected as Japan’s official Oscar submission. But despite his recent success, the “Paris, Texas” and “Wings of Desire” director is deeply concerned about cinema’s future.
In a press conference at the Lumiere Film Festival (via Variety), Wenders expressed his support for the recently concluded Writers Guild of America strike and the ongoing SAG-AFTRA strike. He explained that artificial intelligence poses an existential threat to art that can only be avoided by keeping humans involved in the creative process.
