Werner Herzog week

12 - 22 September, the Goethe Institut and Cine Lumiere are showing his fiction, documentaries and throwing a few conferences.

They are also screening (premiering, we can be fancy) his most recent film, the Wild Blue Yonder:

"Edited in the style of what could be called a 'mood documentary', the Wild Blue Yonder combines extraordinary images from underwater and outer space with a soundtrack in which music and untranslated or imaginary languages weave a complex sound pattern. Brad Dourif, known for his roles in fiction films about the supernatural, here stars as an alien visitor to our planet, and comments on the colonialization of space like a documentary narrator. Wild Blue Yonder features NASA footage and scientific experts. But are the 'facts' they represent scientific knowledge, or are they invented?"
