Summary
Based on the classic novella from Franz Kafka, this film follows the story of Gregor Samsa, a man who awakens one day to find himself transformed into a revolting giant insect. A once hard-working man who supported his parents and sister, he finds that when the tables are turned, his family is not there to support him. As he navigates through his new life as an insect, he experiences true disgust with himself and those around him. This classic tale of transcendence and lack of fulfillment is a truly insightful piece on the human condition
