Lessons of Darkness

Dir. Werner Herzog (1990). This portrait of post–Gulf War Kuwait reveals the place as a blazing inferno, an evocation of pure hell on earth. Lakes of oil and fields of fire transform the desert into a surreal nightmare world as Wagner and Mahler provide an elegiac musical backdrop.
