In such a turbulent world, it often feels like you are living in a simulation. That our life is nothing more than a marathon in a labyrinth where we define our religion, our destiny, our love and our dreams as spaces of rest. Sometimes we stop along the way.

Kafka's Process captures the surreal feeling of floating between a dream and a distant memory. Joseph K.'s story revolves around themes of time, dream states, the afterlife, healing and consciousness.

Joseph K.'s story is our own daily story, in which we are often overwhelmed by the questions of the future.

The first day of school – what will it be like?

The first bike ride – won’t I fall?

The first kiss – what will I feel?

The first day in a foreign country – how do I survive?

The first day with our new baby – will I be good enough?

The first parent was buried - is there life after loss?

How does life actually work? What are its laws? Where will the records of our innocence be scrapped? We are cycles of dust, we experience better or worse days without knowing why the printer of our life is running out of ink.

How much can we really control? Can we really control our lives or do we just live with this impression? Is control controlled by its own need to control?
