A film about the love of cinema, a voyage of discovery through one hundred years of German film. EYE TO EYE charts the great moments of German cinema history. Acclaimed German filmmakers such as Caroline Link, Doris Dörrie, Michael Ballhaus, Tom Tykwer, Wim Wenders, Dominik Graf, Christian Petzold, Andreas Dresen, Wolfgang Kohlhaase und Hanns Zischler, use film extracts to illustrate to us the films that have been particularly important to them.
