Our take

In this thoughtful and engaging doc, film adventurer Werner Herzog digs into the online world to spy on our escalating dance with progress. A work of personal-essay cinema that observes and provokes in equal measure. Fact: despite his skepticism towards technology, Herzog does own a cell phone.
