Based on the short story by Franz Kafka, "The Judgment" is a psychological drama exploring themes of alienation, memory, and the lines between fantasy and reality. The film follows Georg Bendemann, a young merchant living in 1900s Prague with his widowed father. Despite his personal success, Georg struggles to make up for wasted time by reconnecting with an estranged friend. However, as he confronts his circumstances, his situation turns for the worst in the most nonsensical of ways to the point we are compelled to question the very nature of what we are seeing.
