Encounters at the End of the World

Encounters at the End of the World (2008)




Director Werner Herzog travels to Antarctica to document the place and its inhabitants.

The film follows its creator's curiosity, which results in a lack of focus. But his curiosity proves to be justified: the film is consistently compelling, abetted by touches of humour. Herzog is less interested in the milieu than he is in the humans it attracts.
