A surprisingly “un-Kafkaesque” film portrait of Franz Kafka’s last romance
Because of the power of love, the last year of Franz Kafka's life becomes his happiest. Never before has he allowed himself to experience intimacy in the same way as now that he suffers from tuberculosis and is more than ever dependent on his overbearing family. The worldly-wise Dora Diamant accepts him as he is. And he accepts her. The two meet in 1923 on the Baltic Sea coast, where he is convalescing and she is working in a Jewish Volksheim. Together they go to Berlin and, when Franz's health deteriorates rapidly, to a sanatorium in Austria. Barely a year after they meet, he dies. The memory of their time together will shape Dora for the rest of her life.
Based on Michael Kumpfmüller’s novel, the film will have its Czech premiere at the FALL festival in collaboration with Edison Filmhub. Screened in German with Czech subtitles.
