Werner Herzog, USA, 99 min. in English with Spanish subtitles
Director Werner Herzog confirms his standing as poet laureate of humans in extreme situations with «Encounters at the End of the World.» In this visually stunning exploration, Herzog travels to the Antarctic community of McMurdo Station, headquarters of the National Science Foundation and home to 1,100 people during the austral summer (Oct-Feb). Over the course of his journey, Herzog examines human nature and Mother nature, juxtaposing breathtaking locations with the profound, surreal, and sometimes absurd experiences of the marine biologists, physicists, plumbers, and truck drivers who choose to form a society as far away from society as one can get. “Engaging, beautifully shot and genuinely fascinating documentary that will stay with you for weeks afterwards.”
