Our contemporary society relies on the internet for nearly everything: from businesses to education, from space travel to public health systems. In his newest documentary, filmmaker Werner Herzog takes us on a journey into the virtual world, from its origins to its most amazing feats. Through provocative interviews, the film shows how the virtual world has control over practically everything around us. A playful yet terrifying examination of our rapidly interconnecting online lives. Sundance Film Festival 2016.
