Executive produced by Werner Herzog, The Arc of Oblivion explores a quirk of humankind: in a universe that erases its tracks, we humans are hellbent on leaving a trace.
Set against the backdrop of the filmmaker's quixotic quest to build an ark in a field in Maine, the film heads far afield—to salt mines in the Alps, fjords in the Arctic, ancient libraries in the Sahara—to illuminate the strange world of archives, record-keeping and memory.
Playfully weaving stop-motion animation, spellbinding cinematography and fascinating interviews from the director's inner circle and experts in the fields of science, culture and art, The Arc of Oblivion reveals how nature inspires the human drive behind filmmaking.
