Werner Herzog's latest film is a typically inspired union of cinematic bravado and lunacy, a mockumentary ostensibly about a disgruntled alien's reminiscences of the long journey from the Andromeda galaxy to earth. Although the alien is played with crazy- eyed conviction by Brad Dourif, the whole exercise is really an excuse to reinvent a series of ethereally beautiful zero-gravity sequences shot during a NASA space shuttle mission and some extraordinary Arctic underwater diving scenes, all set to a hypnotic score of Sardinian polyphonic harmonies.
