What happens
Klassenverhältnisse, known in English as Class Relations, in French as Amerika, rapports de classe, is a 1984 film by the French filmmaking duo of Jean-Marie Straub and Danièle Huillet. It is based on Franz Kafka's unfinished first novel, Amerika. The German filmmaker Harun Farocki appears as one of the leads, and the film also features a cameo from American experimental filmmaker Thom Andersen. Farocki made a documentary about the filming process, Jean-Marie Straub und Danièle Huillet bei der Arbeit an einem Film. (from Wikipedia, CC BY-SA)
