"Every day… I must play many different roles." A teaser trailer has debuted online for the next Werner Herzog film, and it's not at all what you're expecting. Family Romance, LLC is the latest film directed by Herzog, and it's not a documentary like most assumed (since it just came out of nowhere). It's actually a narrative feature film, and will be premiering at the Cannes Film Festival later this month. Just wait - it gets even better. This was shot in Japan, with Japanese actors, in the Japanese language. And it's about a special business that can help provide romance, or friends, or family, or followers – all for money. The main story follows a man who is hired to impersonate the missing father of a 12 year old girl. Starring Yuichi Ishii and Mahiro Tanimoto. This looks a bit odd, like it's some gonzo filmmaking about how fake our societies are becoming, but I'm curious anyway because it is still Herzog. And he always has something interesting to say. ›››
