The End of Violence Wim Wenders (1997)

Shot over a three week period in L.A., this rich and complex film concerns issues of alienation, surveillance, technology, media and invisibility. A film producer who has made a fortune from violent movies, has to disappear after a mysterious attempt on his life and is taken in by immigrant Mexican gardeners who enable him to see the dehumanising reality of his old life. Meanwhile a scientist is pressured by the CIA to precide over an Orwellian surveillance system overlooking the city.
