Join legendary filmmaker and author Werner Herzog with Jerry Saltz for a deeply personal exploration of art, philosophy, and history that unravels one of the most urgent questions of our “post-fact” era: what is truth?
Mixing documentary and drama, fiction and nonfiction, Werner Herzog’s films have challenged, enriched, and expanded our understanding of the truth for decades — and in The Future of Truth, these philosophical explorations take on a new focus and resonance for a new era of politics and technology. At a moment when deepfake AI videos are proliferating, and most people have simply thrown up their hands in despair at the lies of our public figures and the ubiquity of fake news, Herzog’s wisdom is a refreshing and fascinating antidote to nihilism — reaching beyond the realm of fact for a higher form of truth to approach humanity’s deepest, most eternal questions.
Hear Herzog as he discusses the nature of truth itself — the difference between truth and fact, the future of knowledge, how the question of truth has guided him throughout his remarkable and singular career, and much more.
