Summary:
In 1828, 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 pf the century" -punctuated by a brilliant performance by Bruno S. -will haunt viewers forever.
