Everyman for Himself and God Against

W. Germany 1974

Another Herzog film. It is based on the true story of Kasper Hauser who was denied any human contact or movement for the first 17 years of his life. When he is finally released he is totally without culture and through the attempts to educate Kasper, Herzog exposes the irrational bourgeois society, who try to shove God and other senseless rituals down Kasper's throat. Every bit as good as Aguirre.
