MCT:March 16, 2008Land of Silence and Darkness (Land der Stille und Finsternis)
Directed by Werner Herzog
West Germany 1970-71, 16mm, color, 85 min.
With Fini Straubinger, Heinrich Fleischmann, Vladimir Kokol
German with English subtitles
Werner Herzog's third feature film is a life-affirming portrait of Fini Straubinger, a middle-aged blind-and-deaf woman who decides, against her family's wishes, to work with other similarly challenged individuals. Herzog,as visionary in his documentary pursuits as he is in his fiction,accompanies Fini and her colleagues on journeys of discovery (a day at the zoo, an airplane flight) as he transmits to the audience the spirit of their uniquely intense existence.
