Still, the flashy conceptual gimmickry and big-name participation in “About a Hero” ought to be enough to turn distributors’ heads as the film makes its way through the docfest circuit — even if the biggest of those names isn’t really on board. Not in person, anyway. Inspired by Werner Herzog’s statement that “a computer will not make a film as good as mine in 4,500 years,” Winiewicz trained an AI model entirely on the venerable filmmaker’s body of work, and has used it both to script a fictional tale of an unexplained death in a German factory town, and to fashion a facsimile of Herzog to narrate it. Named Kaspar (last name Hauser, one presumes), the model is, like much AI creation, close to authentic but eerily askew in all manner of particularities — beginning with its deepfaked mimicry of those distinctively husky Herzog tones, which is scarcely on the level of a party-trick impression. #AboutAHero
