Join us on a surreal adventure with indefatigable globetrotting auteur, Werner Herzog. Filmed guerrilla-style in Japan, Herzog’s typically unique dramatization of the real phenomenon of renting family members and social stand-ins explores the uncanny essence of human relationships.

Werner Herzog’s touching documentary portrait of the late, globetrotting writer Bruce Chatwin is the legendary director’s most personal film yet. Traveling to striking sites from Chatwin’s work, Herzog crafts a sublime tribute to a great artist and friend, and their shared quest for ecstatic truth.
