2. Into The Abyss
Legendary documentarian Walter Herzog wrote and fully produced this film which explores the meaning of life through the minds of two men on death row and mere days away from their scheduled executions. Herzog calls this exploration a “gaze into the abyss of the human soul,’ and I can’t disagree. While some parts may be hard to watch as you know the protagonists’ impending fate, their thoughts on life are incredibly insightful as the situation they’re in can’t be replicated through fiction.
