This film revolves around Doctor Gene Scott, one of the more famous televangelists in California. He stars in a show where he exhibits a strong, aggressive temperament and talks about beatitude, urging his listeners to send sums of money to his church’s bank account.

As surreal and beautifully enigmatic as all of Werner Herzog’s non-fiction cinema, God’s Angry Man tackles the wildly entertaining reality of nightly TV broadcasts. Who else could have captured the controversial teachings of American preacher Gene Scott on screen if not the famed German auteur?
