A documentary about the relationship between a mad genius, Klaus Kinski, and his frequent collaborator, Werner Herzog. Two men, whose films such as Aguirre, Fitzcarraldo, or Woyzeck are among the best European cinematography of the 70s and 80s, thatmanaged to ascend into film heaven together and hate each other at the same time.

Klaus Kinski is a first-class acting psychologist. What he did with his relationship with Werner Herzog probably won't be seen with any other actor in relation to the director. I recommend this documentary to anyone who loves movies so they could see how an actor can behave. The Indian offers, the kick-off of an ultra-poisonous snake or the brutal fit of rage towards Werner are the worst things you can't even imagine, and they have little to do with professionalism. All the more haunting is the peace of mind of Werner Herzog, who radiates more fear than the loud-mouthed Kinski. Believe me, you wouldn't want to be extras in any movie starring Kinski. Worst case scenario, you would survive.
