JURADO GONZALEZ, David Antonio. Myth and catastrophe. Characters and landscape in Werner Herzog and its echoes in Latin American cinema. Comun. soc [online]. 2018, n.32, pp.55-79. ISSN 0188-252X. https://doi.org/10.32870/cys.v0i32.6952.
The relationship between myth and catastrophe can help us understand Werner Herzog’s filmography. Taking as a reference this relationship, and analyzing character and landscape narratives, I will compare Herzog’s filmography with some contemporary Latin-American films to show that, even if these films resonate with the language of catastrophe of the German director, they objectivize catastrophe to the point of demystification.
