Until the End of the World is a stunning science-fiction film from the legendary German director Wim Wenders. Released in 1991, the movie stars William Hurt, Solveig Dommartin, and Pietro Falcone in lead roles. A dystopian tale about the end of the world, the film traces the journey of a woman named Claire and her quest to find a mysterious man who has invented a device that can record dreams.

The film opens in 1999, in Paris, where Claire (played by Dommartin), is trying to escape from her past. She is involved in a car chase with several men who are after her, but she manages to lose them in the chaos of the city. In her haste, she meets a man named Trevor McPhee (played by William Hurt), an Australian fugitive who is on the run. They both decide to embark on a journey together, traveling around the world in search of adventure and freedom.

Along the way, they meet a series of eccentric characters, including a scientist who has created a device that can record people's dreams. The device, named "Superconducting Quantum Interference Device" or SQUID, is unlike anything anyone has ever seen before. It can record people's dreams and play them back on a screen, just like movies. Trevor and Claire become obsessed with the device and the man who invented it, Henri Vargas (played by Falcone).

As they try to find Vargas, they also try to evade the dangerous men who are after them. These men are not who they seem, and their intentions are not exactly friendly. They are after the SQUID and will stop at nothing to get it.

Throughout their journey, Trevor and Claire fall in love, but their relationship is tested by the dangers they face and the secrets they keep from each other. The film is a meditation on love, technology, and the destructive power of human ambition.

Until the End of the World is a visually stunning film, with beautiful cinematography that captures the different locations where the story takes place. The film was shot in several countries, including Australia, Japan, and the United States, and the landscapes are breathtaking. The soundtrack is also impressive, featuring original songs by several famous musicians, including U2, Nick Cave, and R.E.M.

The film's themes are timeless, and its commentary on how technology can drive humanity to destruction is more important now than ever. Until the End of the World is a must-see film for lovers of science-fiction, romance, and adventure.

Until the End of the World is a 1991 drama with a runtime of 2 hours and 38 minutes. It has received moderate reviews from critics and viewers, who have given it an IMDb score of 6.8 and a MetaScore of 63.
