Sundance 2016: 'Lo and Behold, Reveries of the Connected World' Review


Werner Herzog is up to his old tricks in Lo and Behold, a playfully profound documentary about the internet -- and by that, I mean the whole internet. Touching on privacy, artificial intelligence, addiction and a myriad other topics, the documentary is hardly authoritative, but that's by design: Herzog is after something a little more ephemeral about the ways that our online existence is encroaching into our "real" lives. My review is live at Screen International.
