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 hiIl in Peru, who hypnotises his actors, climbs down volcanoes, talks to murderers on death row, cooks and eats his own shoe and was once shot at. lt’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 excIusive behind-the-scenes access into Herzog’s everyday Iife, rare archive materiaI and in-depth interviews with the man himself and ceIebrated coIIaborators – including Christian Bale, NicoIe Kidman, and his wife Lena Herzog – we are given an exciting gIimpse into this work process and personal Iife. Also appearing in the fiIm are Joshua Oppenheimer, Robert Pattinson, Patti Smith, CarI Weathers, Wim Wenders and Chloe Zhao.
