DramaHistory

Conceived as a kaleidoscopic mosaic, the film follows the imprint Franz Kafka left on the world from his birth in 19th-century Prague to his death in post-WW1 Vienna.

VIBE

This is a deeply introspective journey into the mind and lasting impact of a literary giant. Its fragmented, mosaic structure invites contemplation, weaving a melancholic, existential tapestry of a life's imprint on history, steeped in a rich, atmospheric historical setting.
