Werner Herzog è sempre attivissimo, non solo con i suoi documentari, ma anche nella fiction e dopo l’inedito Queen of the Desert, presentato in Italia in anteprima dal Lake Como Film Festival, ha terminato anche Salt and Fire, che ha debuttato a Toronto.
The United Nations has sent a scientific delegation, led by researchers Laura (Veronica Ferres) and Fabio (Gael García Bernal), to investigate rare South American geological formations. But as soon as they land, the crew is kidnapped by minions of rogue businessman Matt Riley (Michael Shannon), who has his own agenda when it comes to environmental protection. Deep inside his compound, Laura becomes separated from her fellow explorers and drawn deeper into Riley’s world, but try as she might, she can’t predict his final plan.
Il film è interpretato da Michael Shannon, Veronica Ferres e Gael Garcia Bernal ed uscirà in Francia il 7 dicembre.
Non si conoscono al momento altre date d’uscita.
