Based on a true story, Dawn follows Dieter Dengler (Christian Bale) who is shot down during a top-secret mission at the beginning of the Vietnam War and taken hostage. The adventure really begins when Dieter makes a run for his life — through a jungle that no one has ever survived. Director Herzog outdoes himself, making a film that is both popularly accessible and daring, and at the same time proves that he is capable—like his characters—of almost anything. D: Werner Herzog, USA, 2006, 126m
