Lo and Behold, Reveries of the Connected World
Directed by Werner Herzog
2016, USA, 98 min

*A panel will follow the Wednesday, November 9 / 7 pm screening of Lo and Behold entitled  The Internet: The Devil’s Resting Place or the New Utopia?

Society depends on the internet for nearly everything but rarely do we step back and recognize its endless intricacies and unsettling omnipotence. From the brilliant mind of Werner Herzog (Grizzly Man) comes a playful yet chilling examination of our rapidly connecting lives. Herzog captures interviews with a treasure trove of strange and beguiling individuals. The internet may be, as Herzog states, “one of the biggest revolutions we as humans are experiencing.” but he tempers this enthusiasm with tragic stories from victims of online harassment and internet addiction.

Reviews

Herzog’s latest nonfiction work explores the profound effects the creation of the internet has had on our society.

Enjoyable and insightful, Lo and Behold will have audiences both praising and fearing the wonder that is the internet.
