Today, Agnieszka Holland’s Franz, which premiered at the Toronto International Film Festival and is Poland's entry for the Oscars, was displayed at the 46th Cairo International Film Festival.
The film, which is visually attractive, showed a fragmented look into the thoughts and life of one of the most influential writers and thinkers in the 20th century.
The director delved deeper into his youth, his teenage years, his tense relationship with father, his inner thoughts, visions, and voices.
He also gave a bird's-eye view of his work as a clerk and romantic instability.
The film follows the life of Kafka through a journey of his museum, and each place or spot in the museum reflects a certain stage or situation of Kafka's life. Therefore, there is a blend between various storylines.
Idan Weiss delivers a standout performance as Kafka, capturing both his introverted fragility and surprising humour, especially in scenes where Kafka reads from The Trial to a room erupting with laughter.
