Rising from a farm boy to become President of the Soviet Union, Mikhail Gorbachev brought about changes that helped end the Cold War, toppled the USSR, enabled the reunification of Germany and transformed the world forever.
Documentary filmmaker Werner Herzog and co-director Andre Singer discuss their new film "Meeting Gorbachev", during an exclusive interview with AFP. Herzog's candid conversations with the former Soviet leader are the foundation for the film, presented at the Toronto International Film Festival.
