VIRAL HUMOUR

Herzog uses a wonderfully quirky selection of clips and memes and slapstick to track the period from the beginning of the pandemic to the loosening of the anti-corona measures... a refreshing perspective.

LAST EXIT: SPACE

[Last Exit: Space] is lively, compelling, fun. With a nicely balanced sense of academic inquiry and “Everyman” wonderment, it provides a survey of the many problems and concerns, ranging from practical to theoretical, that must be addressed to permanently sustain human life off planet Earth.
