Contact: Arjun (ar125@duke.edu)
Sponsor: Freewater Presentations, DUU
Where: Griffith Film Theater (located on the lower level of the Bryan Center)
Why:

"A poem of oddness and beauty. Herzog is like no other filmmaker, and to return to him is to be welcomed into a world vastly larger and more peculiar than the one around us. The underwater photography alone would make a film, but there is so much more."

- Roger Ebert, Chicago Sun-Times

"It’s one of the best documentaries of the year, no doubt about it."
- Richard Roeper, Ebert & Roeper

"Werner Herzog is a magnet for obsessives, and his lovely new film, Encounters at the End of the World, takes you places an ordinary filmmaker might've gone to yet missed completely."
- Michael Phillips, Chicago Tribune
