De niño, Dieter Dengler comtemplaba cómo los aviones aliados destruían su localidad natal. Desde aquel momento, él sabía que deseaba volar, así que a los 18 se desplazó a América, alistado en la Marina, y pronto fue enviado a Vietnam.
Durante una de sus primeras misiones, Dengler fue herido cerca de Laos y hecho prisionero. A pesar del hambe y las torturas, se escapó y, tras una terrible caminata a través de la jungla, volvió a casa. Sin embargo, ni el comfort ni el éxito han conseguido ahuyentar los demonios del pasado de Dieter.
En este singular documental de Werner Herzog, ganador de varios reputados premios, el director alemán regresa de nuevo a la jungla con Dengler para contarnos una increíble historia de coraje y supervivencia en contra de todo buen pronóstico.

Acabo de ver en Karagarga este docu de Herzog. Está en inglés, sin subtítulos. Os quoteo el mensaje de jaimetout en KG:http://karagarga.net/details.php?id=6037Widescreen DVD rip. No subtitles, sorry.
Dieter Dengler is an amazing man. Early in his childhood, he watched Allied planes sweeping past his window in Bavaria, as they strafed Germany's small towns, and from that moment, he knew he needed to fly.
The path to becoming a pilot was not easy. He emigrated to America, joined the Army and ended up peeling potatoes. But his determination saw him through a college degree, entry into the US Navy, and finally, his first mission as a pilot, in Vietnam, February 1966.
Less than an hour after taking off from his aircraft carrier, Dieter had been shot down. He was captured and tortured for six months until finally being rescued. Despite this, he still wanted to fly.
Werner Herzog retells the life and story of one of the most unusual Vietnam war heros. Dengler is both a humble man and an exceptional storyteller, whether it be his descriptions of the jungles, or his need for freedom, which meant he kept all his doors unlocked. Herzog provides a setting for these stories, by intercutting stock footage with sequences from Dengler's return to the jungle where he was shot down.
This is one of Herzog's best documentaries, possibly because his subject matter strays close to the boundaries of fiction. There is also a close personal connection, as Herzog's childhood was also spent in a remote part of Germany.
Sadly, Dieter died this year and there is a postscript to the film. Before he died, he handed Herzog a manuscript, written in phonetic English, much akin to the writings of Joyce, telling of his experiences in the jungle. Watching this documentary, you get to hear the extraordinary story straight from Dieter's mouth.

) y aunque como muestra antológica de un tipo de "cine" no creo que sea un gran docu... aunque marcambit, no me queda claro si lo que dices es en serio o es una fina ironía.
