synopsis
Israel | 2024 | 72 min | Hebrew, English, German
Winner of the Haifa Film Festival 2025 Jury Prize for Best Documentary. Franz Kafka left behind a rich collection of unpublished manuscripts, along with instructions to his best friend, Max Brod, to burn them all. But Brod did not do so. This act of altruistic ‘betrayal’ created the multi-generational curse that will accompany our story throughout its entire length, a 100-year-old story that travels from the winding streets of Prague to Spinoza Street in Tel Aviv. Post-screening discussion with the filmmaker, Eliran Peled. Based on Benjamin Balint's "Kafka's Last Trial."
