Kaspar Hauser - Jeder für sich und Gott gegen alle - Expat Cinema Rotterdam
It’s a mysterious tale. One day, a young man, mute, illiterate and clad in rags, is found in the streets of Nuremberg. In his hand a letter bearing his name: Kaspar Hauser.
Werner Herzog has always been idiosyncratic so, for the role of the 17-year-old mute Kaspar Hauser – the ‘enfant sauvage,’ he chose 41-year-old Berlin busker Bruno S. Kaspar is acculturated, but wasn’t his original state more amenable?
