Werner Herzog's latest documentary looks at the way the internet has reshaped the world. "Alternates between episodes that contrast exhilaration with exploitation and damnation." - Slant
"One of the director's best docs." - Philadelphia Inquirer
"An entertaining exploration into an ever-shifting discussion, but, with Herzog’s specific charms, it will no doubt be a significant time capsule — or ominous document of warning — in the years to come." - The Film Stage
"Thoughtful, searching and wonderfully moving in its wistful final moments." - Washington Post
Werner Herzog chronicles the virtual world from its origins to its outermost reaches, exploring the digital landscape with the same curiosity and imagination he previously trained on earthly destinations as disparate as the Amazon, the Sahara, the South Pole and the Australian outback. Working with NetScout, a world leader in real time service assurance and cybersecurity, Herzog leads viewers on a journey through a series of provocative conversations that reveal the ways in which the online world has transformed how virtually everything in the real world works - from business to education, space travel to healthcare, and the very heart of how we conduct our personal relationships. Not Rated. 98 min.
