Bagdad Cafe 4K 1987

The director set his first English-language film in a run-down motel in the middle of the Mojave Desert. Jasmine Münchgstettner, an ordinary German housewife, had a falling out with her husband, who left her alone in the desert. After wandering around for a while under the scorching sun, she arrives at a dusty motel run by Brenda, a sharp-tongued, tough woman who treats her new client like an alien.

After a while, however, these two very different women become best friends and together turn the motel into the best establishment west of Las Vegas. Jasmine simply attracts all visitors, especially Rudy Cox, a desperate romantic who desperately wants to paint her portrait.
