"An intimate portrait of legendary, master filmmaker Werner Herzog at work on My Son, My Son, What Have Ye Done, by that film's co-writer, Herbert Golder, a close friend and long-time collaborator. Unlike other documentaries that have been made about Herzog, in which he stares almost defiantly into the camera and, in his inimitable way and in his famous voice, articulates his views on life, this film shows a side of him known only to his friends and close collaborators."--Container.
