Franz Kafka is torn between his father's authority, the routine of his job at an insurance office, and his longing for artistic fulfillment. As his writings find their first readers, the young man's journey begins. He longs for normality but encounters the contradictions of life, writing literary history and falling head over heels in love again and again. Driven by love, imagination, and the desire for respect, a touching and bizarre portrait of one of the most fascinating thinkers of modern times unfolds. A film like Kafka's work itself: surprising, poetic, unforgettable.
