Lessons of Darkness (German: Lektionen in Finsternis) is a 1992 film directed by Werner Herzog. Shot in documentary style on 16-millimeter film from the perspective of an almost alien observer, the film is an exploration of the ravaged oil fields of post-Gulf War Kuwait, decontextualized and characterized in such a way as to emphasize the terrain's cataclysmic strangeness.[1] An effective companion to his earlier film Fata Morgana, Herzog again perceives the desert as a landscape with its voice.[2]
