A parable about man's inhumanity to man, from director Werner Herzog. Kaspar, played by Bruno S, a discovery of Herzog's who lived in prisons and asylums from the age of three, comes over as a cross between François Truffaut's 'Wild Child' and Nicolas Roeg's 'The Man Who Fell To Earth'. His story is unbearably moving, although it has its moments of humour, as in the 'clever apple' scene, when Kaspar's unique logic wins a rare victory over his tormentors.
