world? Hell? God?

In the end what is hell, what is religion, what is God, and what can he bring us. This movie does his deep probing.

The person who lives in the isolated, dark basement, has he experienced a life like hell? Can't stand, can't walk, can't speak, can't write, just food and water, and the horse, a wooden horse with a silk scarf around it. Suddenly thrown into this world, this world has faith, aesthetics, noble and lowly, flowers, birds, fish and insects, and people. His natural love for life, the concept of equality regardless of species, casual music, contempt for worship, and his hierarchical behavior seem to be gods without expressions or words. No one understands him, only one wants to destroy him, because he does not obey the illusions of the group, but only nature and truth. That sentence "how far the apple rolls is determined by the apple" is precisely the gods that people who sing the hymn cannot understand, and it is also the art and beauty that the noble mayors cannot understand.

In the end, like the beginning of his own "life", the blind prophet eventually led people out of the desert, but the story continued in ignorance, because his brain was dug out and thought it was a different species.

    80/100, under the guise of an oracle-like non-human individual, drives Herzog's torture of human social civilization with extremely pure spiritual power. No more words are needed, just feeling the appearance of this world is enough to make my eyes teary.
