He is one of the most influential figures behind the New German Cinema movement. His films often showcase heroes overcoming obstacles to achieve impossible dreams. Such films include Fitzcarraldo, Stroszek, and the more recent Grizzly Man. Beyond his influence in German New Cinema, Herzog is a prominent figure in international filmmaking, as well as being a Sundance favorite. This year, his documentary will debut at Sundance 2016, “LO AND BEHOLD, Reveries of the Connected World” in which he hopes to explore the inner workings of a world connected by the Internet, and the threats associated with its collapse.
