Screenshot from Werner Herzog's Wodaabe - Herdsmen of the Sun

Captured from DVD by Staecker (talk)

Believed to be fair use in the article Wodaabe - Herdsmen of the Sun because it illustrates the film which is the main subject of the article. The image is of reduced resolution, and no free or promotional alternative is likely available because the film never had a theatrical release.

This image is a screenshot from a copyrighted film, and the copyright for it is most likely owned by the studio which produced the film, and possibly also by any actors appearing in the screenshot. It is believed that the use of a limited number of low-resolution screenshots for critical commentary and discussion of the film and its contents on the English-language Wikipedia, hosted on servers in the United States by the non-profit Wikimedia Foundation, qualifies as fair use under the Copyright law of the United States. Any other uses of this image, on Wikipedia or elsewhere, may be copyright infringement. See Wikipedia:Non-free content for more information.
