Description & Specifications

A poetic meditative approach to life and death, by one of the most renowned and respected filmmakers and intellectuals of our time. In November 1974, when Werner Herzog learned that his mentor Lotte Eisner, the filmmaker and critic, was on the brink of death in Paris, he decided to walk there from Munich, ‘with full faith, believing that she would remain alive if he visited her on foot.’ Along the way, he recorded what he saw, how he felt, and his experiences, from the physical discomfort of the journey to moments of ecstasy.

This remarkable narrative is part pilgrimage, part meditation, and a conflict between a great German romantic imagination and the modern world. This edition of the book is published for the first time as a classic piece of proto-psychogeography, coinciding with the 40th anniversary of the director's legendary journey.
