![]() ![]() This identification between fictitious family (the Samsas) and true family (the Kafkas) also inspired a change into the time context: the story is placed at Central Europe subjugated by national socialism, grotesque regime that Franz Kafka didn't know, but it was what, some years after his death, annihilated his family. He added some winks to other Kafka's works (and Borges', and Piranesi's.) and above all, he dressed the story with a lot of allusions and references to the author's private and familar life, especially to his father, Hermann Kafka, whom Franz always had complicated relationship. He took advantage from what producion achieved (as a magnificent location with a library with more than 60,000 volumes). He made the risky decision to don't limit himself too much to the text. Two years after finishing film studies, Carlos Atanes, great fan of Franz Kafka, directed this adaptation very freely. Cast: Antonio Vladimir, Manuel Solàs, Arantxa Peña, José María Nunes, Anne Sofie Nilsson, Xavier Villena. ![]()
