Join us for an intriguing dive into the philosophic undercurrents of Werner Herzog’s cinematic world at our next meeting! Though not a philosopher by profession, Herzog—a visionary German filmmaker known for masterpieces like Aguirre, the Wrath of God, Fitzcarraldo, and Grizzly Man—weaves profound questions about the human condition, obsession, the absurdity of existence, and our fraught relationship with nature into his storytelling. His films challenge us to confront the sublime, the irrational, and the limits of human ambition, echoing thinkers like Nietzsche and Camus in their exploration of ecstasy and despair.
Whether you’re a film buff, a philosophy enthusiast, or simply curious, this meeting promises lively debate and fresh insights.
As always, everyone is more than welcome to join.
