00:00:00.120 --> 00:00:03.480
<v Speaker 1>This is biosnap Ai with the latest on Werner Herzog

2
00:00:03.919 --> 00:00:06.080
<v Speaker 1>and the week has been eventful in ways that matter

3
00:00:06.160 --> 00:00:09.000
<v Speaker 1>for the long arc of his career. Variety reports that

4
00:00:09.039 --> 00:00:12.039
<v Speaker 1>Herzog will receive the Venice Film Festival's Golden Lion for

5
00:00:12.119 --> 00:00:15.400
<v Speaker 1>Lifetime Achievement at the eighty second edition later this month,

6
00:00:15.800 --> 00:00:19.480
<v Speaker 1>a canonizing honor that cements his place alongside the festival's

7
00:00:19.519 --> 00:00:24.320
<v Speaker 1>most enduring our tours. IMDb's news feed aggregates the same announcement,

8
00:00:24.719 --> 00:00:27.879
<v Speaker 1>noting Herzog's own statement that he is not retiring and

9
00:00:27.920 --> 00:00:31.039
<v Speaker 1>has multiple projects in motion, which frames the award as

10
00:00:31.079 --> 00:00:35.000
<v Speaker 1>a midstream accolade rather than a capstone. According to Lebianale's

11
00:00:35.039 --> 00:00:39.000
<v Speaker 1>official Venice program, his new documentary Ghost Elephants is set

12
00:00:39.000 --> 00:00:41.520
<v Speaker 1>to screen out of competition in the Sala Grande on

13
00:00:41.600 --> 00:00:44.759
<v Speaker 1>August twenty eighth at two p m, with an additional

14
00:00:44.759 --> 00:00:48.640
<v Speaker 1>public screening on August twenty ninth for pass holders, solidifying

15
00:00:48.679 --> 00:00:50.560
<v Speaker 1>that a fresh work will be on the lido during

16
00:00:50.600 --> 00:00:54.039
<v Speaker 1>the honor. The Venison Cider Guide echoes the festival calendar

17
00:00:54.359 --> 00:00:57.880
<v Speaker 1>and places the Golden Lion tribute for Herzog during the

18
00:00:57.920 --> 00:01:01.640
<v Speaker 1>opening night ceremony on August twenty se seven. Underscoring the

19
00:01:01.679 --> 00:01:05.120
<v Speaker 1>prominence of the moment on the release front, the British

20
00:01:05.120 --> 00:01:08.840
<v Speaker 1>Film Institute announced a newly restored four K Ultra HD

21
00:01:09.200 --> 00:01:11.680

22
00:01:11.719 --> 00:01:15.439
<v Speaker 1>of God, landing August twenty fifth. For a filmmaker whose

23
00:01:15.519 --> 00:01:19.079
<v Speaker 1>legend is tied to that film's audacity, this restoration is

24
00:01:19.120 --> 00:01:23.680
<v Speaker 1>biographically meaningful. It refreshes his foundational work for new audiences

25
00:01:23.680 --> 00:01:27.280
<v Speaker 1>and scholars a half century on in production and development.

26
00:01:27.359 --> 00:01:31.120
<v Speaker 1>News Variety previously detailed that Herzog is making his animation

27
00:01:31.239 --> 00:01:34.319
<v Speaker 1>debut with The Twilight World, based on his novel about

28
00:01:34.319 --> 00:01:38.640
<v Speaker 1>Hero Onoda, partnering with Sun Creature's studio and co writing

29
00:01:38.640 --> 00:01:41.719
<v Speaker 1>with Michael Arius and Luke of Vitally. Paired with his

30
00:01:41.840 --> 00:01:45.560
<v Speaker 1>venice comments about ongoing projects, that signals a late career

31
00:01:45.599 --> 00:01:50.079
<v Speaker 1>expansion into animation that could shape his legacy. BANG show

32
00:01:50.120 --> 00:01:55.120

33
00:01:55.120 --> 00:01:59.680

40
00:02:25.560 --> 00:02:29.439
<v Speaker 1>South American adventures. These are minor in long term significance,
