Kafka: Season 1, Episode 1

1 - 1: Max

The first episode is about Kafka's friend Max Brod. He is a recognized writer, full of energy and ideas, but his biggest project is to gain fame for his friend Franz. This is a kind of reverse Amadeus constellation: Brod tries with all his might to help his difficult friend, who, however, never returns artistic recognition or support to his most loyal supporter. Brod is a manic womanizer, always involved in multiple affairs. He is a warm-hearted person and the center of energy and power in the story. Unfortunately, he is not a good writer - a fact that Kafka is well aware of.
