About the film:
Through the lens of legendary filmmaker Werner Herzog, Theater of Thought takes audiences on a provocative journey into the study of the mind and consciousness, daring us to question whether we truly have autonomy over our thoughts, or if our brains will inevitably become infused with mind-controlling technology in the not so distant future. Gathering insight and predictions from some of the world’s most influential scientists and innovators, Theater of Thought is an exploration of the ethical, and existential, effects that neurotechnology presents in our rapidly advancing world.



About the filmmaker:
Werner Herzog is a German writer, actor, and director from Munich, Germany. He grew up in a remote mountain village in Bavaria and studied History and German Literature in Munich and Pittsburgh. At the age of 19, Herzog directed his first short film, Herakles (1962). Since then, he has produced, written, and directed more than sixty features and documentary films, such as Nosferatu the Vampyre (1978), Fitzcarraldo (1982), Lessons of Darkness (1992), and Invincible (2001). Herzog’s film Aguirre, The Wrath of God (1972) is widely regarded as one of the most haunting historical dramas of all time. The film marked Herzog’s first of five collaboration with the band Popol Vuh and actor Klaus Kinski and was nominated for the César Award for Best Foreign Film in 1976.
