Reviews for Burden of Dreams

Trailer

7.6 / 10 1h 37min

The Amazon rain forest, 1979. The crew of Fitzcarraldo (1982), a film directed by German director Werner Herzog, soon finds itself with problems related to casting, tribal struggles and accidents, among many other setbacks; but nothing compared to dragging a huge steamboat up a mountain, while Herzog embraces the path of a certain madness to make his vision come true.

a hybrid documentary of an incredible, relentlessly reckless story of film-making, and of a little anthropology too
