Details

• Plot: In 1928, as if out of nowhere, a young man appeared in Nuremberg's town square. He had no history, spoke only a few words, and could not stand upright. Having been locked in a basement for 17 years, Kaspar Hauser was more beast than man.; ; Who was he, and where did he come from?; ; Despite attempts by townsfolk to understand and civilize him, Kaspar became little more than a sideshow attraction. And though the mystery of his origins remained unanswered, perhaps the biggest question of all was, why did someone want him dead?; ; Based on a true story, Werner Herzog's poignant, often funny, and unforgettable tale of 'the enigma of the century' -- punctuated by a brilliant performance by Bruno S. -- will haunt viewers forever.
