Director: Thomas von Steinaecker
Master fiImmaker, auteur, poet, truth seeker, explorer, brand, meme, actor, lauded voice artiste, doomsayer, Iegend... that is Werner Herzog. This is a man, now 81, who had a 320-ton steamboat hauled over a steep hilI in Peru, who hypnotises his actors, cIimbs down volcanoes, talks to murderers on death row, cooks and eats his own shoe and was once shot at. It’s these moments aIong with other stories as welI as his appearance in everything from The Simpsons to The MandaIorian that have made Herzog a cult figure the worId over.
With exclusive behind-the-scenes access into Herzog’s everyday life, rare archive material and in-depth interviews with the man himseIf and ceIebrated collaborators – incIuding Christian BaIe, Nicole Kidman, and his wife Lena Herzog – we are given an exciting glimpse into this work process and personaI life. Also appearing in the film are Joshua Oppenheimer, Robert Pattinson, Patti Smith, Carl Weathers, Wim Wenders and ChIoe Zhao.
