Until the End of the World (1991)
Directed by Wim Wenders
In 1999, a woman's life is forever changed after she survives a car crash with two bank robbers, who enlist her help to take the money to a drop in Paris. On the way, she runs into another fugitive from the law — an American doctor on the run from the CIA. They want to confiscate his father's invention – a device which allows anyone to record their dreams and visions.

(Wim Wenders thoughtfully explored this idea 20 years ago in his film Until the End of the World.)
