Franz is an intimate biographical drama that looks beyond literary legend to reveal the inner life of Franz Kafka. Rather than following a conventional biopic structure, the film explores Kafka’s world through his strained family relationships, emotional insecurity and persistent sense of alienation. Set against the political and cultural tensions of early 20th-century Central Europe, the story presents writing not as a path to fame, but as a fragile means of survival. Creativity emerges as both refuge and burden, shaping a portrait of a man caught between intimacy and isolation.
