“Nothing is typical for Werner, only the atypical is typical for him.” This is just one of many attempts to characterize Werner Herzog. Documentary filmmaker Thomas von Steinaecker spoke to actors, directors, directors of photography and producers who have worked with Herzog over his long career—including directors Chloé Zhao, Joshua Oppenheimer and Wim Wenders, singer Patti Smith and actors Nicole Kidman, Christian Bale and Robert Pattinson. We also hear from Herzog himself, with extraordinary anecdotes about film locations and shoots, his admiration for Lotte Eisner, and his eternal search for beauty. The interviews are carefully punctuated by archive footage of Herzog never seen before, iconic excerpts from his feature films and documentaries, and his cameos in cartoon series such as The Simpsons. Together they create a kaleidoscopic image of a radical visionary and dreamer, and of his very own “Werner World.”

For over half a century, the filmmaker Edgar Reitz, one of the signatories of the Oberhausen Manifesto and a pioneer of epic film narration, has explored, as a practitioner and theoretician, the rules and limits of cinema, which he always seeks to break and extend in new ways. One example of his tireless search and research are the Geschichten vom Kübelkind, which he co-directed with Ula Stöckl in 1969/70, 22 absurdly funny, subversive and anarchistic short films of different lengths, which consciously oppose all conventions, with incredible success. The films remain unrivalled in their Dadaistic inventiveness.

For the past forty years, Igor Pasternak has pursued a lighter-than-air vision: to build gigantic airships that haul cargo to otherwise inaccessible parts of the planet. In high school, in Ukraine, Pasternak formed an airship club; at Lviv National University, where he studied civil engineering, he established an airship-design bureau. Eventually, he settled in southern California and started Aeros, which builds blimps for surveillance and other purposes. His prototype cargo airship, the two-hundred-and-sixty-foot-long Dragon Dream, was destroyed in 2013 when its hangar collapsed on it. Unfazed, Pasternak now aims to produce a fleet of “Aeroscraft” cargo airships, the largest of which will be more than nine hundred feet long and able to carry five hundred tons. Pasternak spoke recently with the director and producer Gabe Polsky. Polsky’s documentary, “Red Army,” played at the 2014 Cannes, Telluride, Toronto, and New York Film Festivals, and was released in theatres in 2015.

Continuação do aclamado documentário “O Ato de Matar”. Aqui, uma família que sobreviveu ao genocídio na Indonésia confronta os homens que mataram um de seus irmãos. Através do documentário de Joshua Oppenheimer, filmando os responsáveis pelo genocídio indonésio, uma família de sobreviventes descobre como é que o filho foi assassinado e a identidade dos homens que o mataram. O mais novo dos irmãos está determinado a quebrar o feitiço de silêncio e medo sob o qual vivem os sobreviventes e, assim, confronta os homens responsáveis pelo assassinato do irmão – algo inimaginável num país onde os assassinos permanecem no poder. Rodado também em 2012, logo após a montagem de “Ato de Matar” (mas antes do seu lançamento), “O Olhar do Silêncio” é uma visão alternativa dos eventos, desta vez sob o ponto de vista das vítimas. Com esta obra, Joshua Oppenheimer ganhou o Grande Prêmio do Júri e Prêmio FIPRESCI no Festival de Cinema de Veneza.

During the 1990s, David Lee Hoffman searched throughout China for the finest teas. He's a California importer who, as a youth, lived in Asia for years and took tea with the Dali Lama. Hoffman's mission is to find and bring to the U.S. the best hand picked and hand processed tea. This search takes him directly to farms and engages him with Chinese scientists, business people, and government officials: Hoffman wants tea grown organically without a factory, high-yield mentality. By 2004, Hoffman has seen success: there are farmer's collectives selling tea, ways to export "boutique tea" from China, and a growing Chinese appreciation for organic farming's best friend, the earthworm.

A romantic opera in three acts with music and libretto by Richard Wagner, performed by the Orchestra of the Teatro di San Carlo. The original title, Tannhauser und der Sangerkrieg auf Wartburg, reveals the real nature of the opera, born by a fusion of two traditional sagas and dedicated to the dualism of spirituality and sensuality and the possibility of redemption through love. Composed between 1843 and 1845, Tannhauser has a tormented musical theme, made up of constant variations. It debuted in Dresden in 1845 when Wagner was just over 30.

Now, near 60, living on Mt. Tamalpais, Dengler tells his story: a German lad surviving Allied bombings in World War II, postwar poverty, apprenticed to a smith, beaten regularly. At 18, he emigrates and peels potatoes in the U.S. Air Force. He leaves for California and college, then enlistment in the Navy to learn to fly. A quiet man of sorrows tells his story: war, capture, harrowing conditions, escape, and miraculous rescue. Where did he find the strength; how does he now live with his memories?

Reverend Huie Rogers is a preacher at the Bible Way Church of Our Lord Jesus Christ in Brooklyn. He is the topic of this short film, during which launches into an epic call-and-response denunciation of human hubris, greed, corruption and failure. The use of lengthy shots present it less like a sermon and more a performance, and induce an almost trance-like state.

The Amazon rain forest, 1979. The crew of Fitzcarraldo (1982), a film directed by German director Werner Herzog, soon finds itself with problems related to casting, tribal struggles and accidents, among many other setbacks; but nothing compared to dragging a huge steamboat up a mountain, while Herzog embraces the path of a certain madness to make his vision come true.

Durante o 35º Festival de Cannes em 1982, Wim Wenders pediu a vários diretores de cinema para entrar em um quarto de hotel, um de cada vez. Uma vez lá dentro, eles deveriam responder a uma única pergunta na frente da câmera: “Qual é o futuro do cinema?”
Made around the time of Fitzcarraldo's release, this documentary follows Werner Herzog on a journey across France and Germany and sees the director talk at length about his life and films.

Na manhã de 26 de maio de 1828, na cidade de Nuremberg, um rapaz foi abandonado com uma pequena carta endereçada ao capitão da cidade. Os habitantes acharam que o rapaz fosse doente ou tivesse alguma deficiência, pois não conseguia andar e sequer se comunicar. A carta dizia seu nome, Kaspar Hauser, e explicava que toda a vida ele havia passado preso em uma torre, nunca aprendendo nada ou vivendo em sociedade. Após ser adotado por uma família e aprender a falar, o rapaz contou que até o dia em que foi abandonado jamais havia visto antes o rosto de uma pessoa. Kaspar tornou-se um fenômeno entre a realeza alemã, principalmente pela aptidão assustadora que tinha para a música, mas era incapaz de diferenciar sonhos e realidade e não conseguia compreender as convenções sociais, como a política e a religião. O filme é baseado em fatos reais. (e 12 - Estimado 12 Anos)

Every five seconds a child under the age of ten dies of hunger. Every four minutes a person loses their sight due to a lack of vitamin A. According to the United Nations, 963 million people - almost one in six inhabitants of our planet - are seriously malnourished. At present, the right to food is surely, of all human rights, the one that is violated with the most impunity. Jean Ziegler argues that hunger is caused by human injustice and assures that today the world could produce enough food to feed the world's population. Among the main causes of this disaster, Ziegler points to stock market speculation, which forces cereal prices to rise, and the appearance of biofuels as a new source of energy. Burning food to keep millions of cars on the roads is a crime against humanity. Hunger is no inescapable destiny. A starving child is killed. The current world order of globalized financial capitalism is not only deadly, it is also absurd. Whoever speculates on staple foods kills children.
