Episode description
Werner Herzog has directed more than 70 films, but Family Romance LLC is the first he's directed in Japanese, a language he doesn't speak.
The film is about a real-life Japanese company, Family Romance LLC, that rents out fathers and other loved ones to families in need.
Herzog himself was fatherless from a very young age, but he says that isn't what attracted him to Family Romance LLC. In fact, he says, he and his brother appreciated not having a father.
He also tells fathers how to talk with their children, tells moms how to get their sons to get rid of their motorcycles, and endorses this viral video.
