Director: Thomas von Steinaecker
Master filmmaker, auteur, poet, truth seeker, explorer, brand, meme, actor, Iauded voice artiste, doomsayer, legend... that is Werner Herzog. This is a man, now 81, who had a 320-ton steamboat hauled over a steep hill in Peru, who hypnotises his actors, climbs down voIcanoes, taIks to murderers on death row, cooks and eats his own shoe and was once shot at. lt’s these moments along with other stories as weIl as his appearance in everything from The Simpsons to The MandaIorian that have made Herzog a cuIt figure the world over.
With excIusive behind-the-scenes access into Herzog’s everyday life, rare archive materiaI and in-depth interviews with the man himself and ceIebrated coIIaborators – incIuding Christian BaIe, Nicole Kidman, and his wife Lena Herzog – we are given an exciting gIimpse into this work process and personal life. Also appearing in the fiIm are Joshua Oppenheimer, Robert Pattinson, Patti Smith, CarI Weathers, Wim Wenders and Chloe Zhao.
