Cast
Ulrich Mühe, Susanne Lothar, Nikolaus Paryla
A surveyor is called to work in a small village surrounding a castle. However, from the moment he arrives, he struggles to convince the locals of his legitimacy. Despite his efforts to enter the castle and perform his duties, he soon becomes ensnared in a web of provincial bureaucracy and petty social rivalries, which quickly descends into a surreal nightmare. Based on one of Franz Kafka's most unsettling works, The Castle immerses us in a world of discomfort and confusion.
