EFTV - 192 (Kafka)

Echo Chamber & Echoes From The Void! Podcasts

It's been a minute f'sure, BUT 'Echoes From The Void!' #EFTV is back with the goodness!!!

We're slightly off pest today, as it's all about the literary legend, Franz Kafka! Did you know that 6th June 2024 was the 100 year anniversary of his death (3rd July 1883 — 3rd June 1924)? I didn't, but smarter people did, and so we have a new limited TV series about the man's life.

Now, due to subtitles, we only looked at the first episode (which was great), BUT, we also sat down with the director / co-writer of the piece, for an enthralling insight into the series' creation. Watch the conversation: HERE! https://youtu.be/d0OUiL4iDFg

'Kafka' is directed by David Schalko, who co-wrote with Daniel Kehlmann based upon Reiner Stach book trilogy, 'Kafka – Die Jahre der Entscheidungen', 'Kafka – Die Jahre der Erkenntnis' & 'Kafka. Die frühen Jahre'. The story of Franz Kafka’s (Joel Basman) life from different perspectives. Presenting his difficult relationship with his domineering father Hermann (Nicholas Ofczarek), his deep friendship with Max Brod (David Kross) and his various love affairs.
