Into the Abyss (2011)



A heavy, haunting documentary that, in the hands of probably anyone other than Herzog, would have seemed amateurish and eye-rolling. But he documents with such a profound sense of curiosity and pathos with regard to humanity that his work is always fascinating. He's very clear on his feelings about capital punishment, but doesn't try to be tricky about those convictions. His subjectivity guides the film in a moving way, capturing the story, characters, and reverberations of an October 2001 triple-homicide.
Strongly recommended.
