This video is a historical documentary-style look at the dark inner life of Franz Kafka, tracing how his exhausting office job, strict family expectations, and declining health shaped some of the most haunting literature of the 20th century. Moving through the late Austro-Hungarian Empire and early 1900s Prague, it explores Kafka’s difficult relationship with his father, his sense of guilt and isolation, and the pressures of trying to write at night while working full-time in an insurance office by day.
Drawing on letters, diaries, and contemporary accounts, the video follows Kafka’s battle with tuberculosis, his fear of intimacy and failure, and the way these private struggles fed directly into works like The Trial and The Metamorphosis. It also examines the fate of his manuscripts after his death, and how, despite his wish that they be destroyed, they survived to define modern existential literature and influence generations of readers and writers.
