Kaspar Hauser seems to have appeared out of thin air, just like that, a confused boy with nothing more to say than his name and expressing a wish to become a knight. The duchess of the island sees him as a big threat and decides to have Kaspar killed.

Kaspar Hauser was a real life 'historical' character and to this day there's speculation ongoing as to whom he realy was. His story keeps inspiring people and Davide Manuli graciously made use of the tale.  This modern day narration with none other than Vincent Gallo in a dual rolls will surprise, intrigue and leave you with many questions.
