In 1920, Franz Kafka wrote 120 letters to writer and journalist Milena Jesenská. A love which filled Kafka’s life with light and hope and, at the same time, illuminates his fears and the darkness in him. 　　“Kafka. In Love: the dot says it all, putting a distance between their love (Jesenská was married) and reminding that Kafka’s not-that-long existence and anxious work were about bumping into an unfathomable reality. The dot could also be one of the grains of the splendid sand animation that director Oborenko uses to illustrate Kafka’s shifting emotions as we hear his gut-wrenching letters. Here, sand makes water or fire on screen, replicating the healing and scorching powers of love. Finally, according to Oborenko, “the film explores not just love but also loneliness and the difficulty of loving and accepting oneself”.
