Michael Shannon stars in the trailer for Werner Herzog’s Salt and Fire

Last Updated on July 31, 2021

SALT AND FIRE is about a mysterious hostage-taking where the leader of a small scientific delegation is deliberately stranded with two blind boys in an area of gigantic salt flats. Shot in Bolivia and starring Michael Shannon, Veronica Ferres and Gael García Bernal, you can check out the trailer for Werner Herzog's latest below!

Honestly, if Herzog's name wasn't attached to this, I probably wouldn't give the film the time of day. Still, the "quiet" trailer is effective and looks to offer up some really intriguing imagery. I'm not sure if it'll make a dent theatrically, but at least it's offering up something to chew on in cinemas come next month.

SALT AND FIRE will hit VOD and iTunes on April 4th and select theaters on April 7, 2017.
