Lo and Behold, Reveries of the Connected World

Lo and Behold, Reveries of the Connected World

In Lo and Behold, Reveries of the Connected World, the legendary auteur and documentarian Werner Herzog (Grizzly Man, Cave of Forgotten Dreams) chro­ nicles 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. 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, from space travel to healthcare – as well as the very heart of how we conduct our personal relationships.
