Shortly after the Gulf War, oil fires were raging all through Kuwait. In the week before this sea of fire would be extinguished, Werner Herzog filmed this apocalyptic landscape with its murky skies, scorched earth and capricious flames.
Werner Herzog confronts a hellish landscape where oil fires turn the Kuwaiti sky into a suffocating, blackened void. This footage captures the terrifying, unpredictable beauty of a world being consumed by its own fuel.
