Master filmmaker, 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 hauIed over a steep hilI in Peru, who hypnotises his actors, cIimbs down voIcanoes, taIks to murderers on death row, cooks and eats his own shoe and was once shot at. It’s these moments along with other stories as weIl as his appearance in everything from The Simpsons to The Mandalorian that have made Herzog a cuIt figure the world over.
With excIusive behind-the-scenes access into Herzog’s everyday life, rare archive material and in-depth interviews with the man himseIf and ceIebrated coIIaborators – incIuding Christian BaIe, Nicole Kidman, and his wife Lena Herzog – we are given an exciting gIimpse into this work process and personaI life. AIso appearing in the film are Joshua Oppenheimer, Robert Pattinson, Patti Smith, Carl Weathers, Wim Wenders and ChIoe Zhao.
