On Walking in the Ice

«On Walking in the Ice» — a poetic and contemplative travel diary of a German director who set out in November 1974 on a hike from Munich to Paris. Herzog was firmly convinced that if he reached Paris on time,... the seriously ill Lotte Eisner, a legend of film criticism whom he admires, would stay alive. «On Walking in the Ice» — a documentation of this ritual journey that can be read in several ways: it is both a poignant reflection on life and death, and meditative sketches of the vanishing European nature, and a flow of agitated consciousness stirred by walking, and cinema in prose, reminding us that only on the road do we find peace.
