Diretor Werner Herzog

Bringing together archive footage and the fruit of three long interviews, conducted over the course of six months, the director Werner Herzog takes a close look at the history of the ex-leader of the Soviet Union, Mikhail Gorbachev. At 87 years of age, the politician reflects on his legacy, including the restructuring measures that he introduced in the Soviet Union and the arms-reduction negotiations held with the United States.
