https://www.bbc.co.uk/programmes/m0008rqv

The German film director has made a film documentary that tells the story of writer, Bruce Chatwin’s, explorations in South America and Australia. Chatwin is presented as a the kind of lunatic (in a good way) hero that typically features in Herzog films.

There are interesting sequences in the film that explore the alternative worlds of distant parts, in terms of both ethnography and psycho-geography.
