Kafka. In Love (Kafka. Iemīlējies), dir. Zane Oborenko, 10’, Latvia/Czech Republic, 2024

Franz and Milena – between them a distance, her husband and loads of letters – it is love that fills Kafka’s life with light and hope and at the same time illuminates the fears and darkness in him. The animated short “Kafka. In Love” is based on Kafka’s Letters to Milena. It explores less known, but nonetheless extraordinary and puzzling aspects of Kafka’s personality.
