Hoe koop je Nietzschean Dog (DOG) in Brazil

Werner Herzog narrated another documentary after the one with the penguin, named "Happy People: A Year in the Taiga". In the documentary one of the Siberian trapper’s working dogs runs alongside the trapper’s snowmobile for over 150 km through snow and night to get him home in time for celebrations. This isn’t portrayed as futile but rather as devotion, endurance, loyalty, and the harsh interdependence of human and animal in a brutal landscape. Werner Herzog uses both animals as symbols, but they point in opposite directions: The penguin walks alone toward meaningless extinction, the dog runs beside a human toward shared survival. One embodies isolation and existential mystery, the other devotion and connection. Herzog places them at opposite poles of existence: the loneliness of being cut off versus the meaning found in companionship and duty.
