Werner Herzog - Radical Dreamer

HAIFA DOCS

"In its best form, this documentary is a tribute in its way of also sharing the philosophy of Herzog, as his story is also one of how to live a full life as a person and an artist"

Master film maker, auteur, poet, truth seeker, brand, legend…Werner Herzog. The man who had a 320-ton steamboat hauled over a steep hill in Peru, who hypnotizes his actors, climbs down into volcanoes, the man who lends his voice to The Simpsons, stars in blockbusters such as the Mandalorian.

With exclusive behind-the-scenes access into Herzog's everyday life, rare archive material and in-depth interviews with the man himself and celebrated collaborators - including Christian Bale, Nicole Kidman – the film presents, for the first time, a comprehensive portrait of an iconic artist of our time.

Filmography: Leonard Bernstein - Das zerrissene Genie (2018), Richard Strauss und seine Heldinnen (2014).
