On the morning of his 30th birthday, Josef K. is arrested by agents of a court unknown to him. Without ever finding out what he allegedly did, he faces an opaque and sinister bureaucracy. Following the rousing success of Ein Bericht für eine Akademie (A Report for an Academy) – the production has been an indispensable part of the Gorki repertoire since February 2019 – Oliver Frljić is adapting a text by Kafka for the Gorki once again. All people have never been equal before the law.
