    Really interesting

    Based on Franz Kafka's Metamorphosis, a great thriller about paranoia and fear that struggle Hans Shabe's life.

    Interesting movie.

    A good thriller based on the Franz Kafka's masterpiece The Metamorphosis.

    Very interesting thriller

    Based of The Metamorphosis of Frank Kafka, by the Theatre of Absolute of Adamov and the Freudian theories on hysteria, this great thriller presents a new picture of the society and schizophrenia through the point of view of the character of Hans, in a beautiful first-person journey.

    An Italian expressionism

    This film is great. It looks like a German expressionist movie with the addition of the modern visual effects, always used with ability. We are absorbed by the mind of this controversial character, Hans Schabe, an antihero that, with his behavior apparently racist, criticize this world full of hate and discriminations making us remember how much ignorance and insanity it still exists.
    9ufficiothedrills

    Absolutely amazing.

    This film is a masterpiece. With an interpretation that absolutely lives up to the importance of his role, Daniele Savoca perfectly manages to convey the sense of inadequacy and anger he feels throughout his existence. With grim and original visual choices, the director gives the film a distressing and engaging character, absolutely appropriate to the story. This movie deserves to be famous.
