1h 20m
Directed by Werner Herzog • 2005 • United Kingdom, France, Germany
Starring Brad Dourif, Donald Williams, Ellen Baker
Werner Herzog’s ability to find otherworldly wonder wherever he points his camera is on display in this sublime experimental science-fiction odyssey, in which he makes striking use of documentary footage—drawn from everything from NASA space-shuttle missions to underwater Antarctic expeditions—to tell the story of an alien refugee (Brad Dourif) from an extinct planet who observes, with rueful sadness, humanity’s own quest to seek a world beyond Earth. The result is a thought-provoking meditation on climate collapse, the fragility of existence, and the search for life amid the vastness of the cosmos.
