The Enigma of Kaspar Hauser

A haunting, philosophical study of a man emerging from total isolation into a world he cannot comprehend, grappling with the nature of human consciousness and belonging.

The film follows Kaspar Hauser, who lived the first seventeen years of his life chained in a tiny cellar with only a toy horse to occupy his time, devoid of all human contact except for a man who wears a black overcoat and top hat who feeds him.
