À propos de ce contenu audio

Werner Herzog dragged a 300-ton steamship over an Amazonian mountain for his film Fitzcarraldo.

In this episode we use this film and its making-of documentary The Burden of Dreams — as a lens for one of the oldest questions: what does it cost to live by an impossible vision? You'll hear us talk about Herzog's improvised recipe for finding harmony in the overwhelm, what it means to conquer something witnessed only by yourself and God, and the people in our own environment who won't stop either.

Just Fitzcarraldin'.
