Berlin, 1925: A year after Franz Kafka's death, Max Broad published Kafka's novel, "The Trial". My idea was to show a cold, merciless and irrational legal mechanism, which slowly but surely rotates a man on a screw. With every turn the death is closer and closer. The end of the trial is known from the beginning. In the novel, Josef K.'s last words describe his own death: "Like a dog!". I would say: "Like a butterfly!" (Of course, I think on pinned butterflies).
