Widely admired by critics, this black/white film, by minimalist directors Jean-Marie Straub and Daniele Huillet, adapts the writer Franz Kafka's unfinished novel, Amerika.

A young, middle-class European, Karl Rossmann is forced to leave his homeland after a scandal and move to America. But he is unable to shake off his old-world customs. He finds he has become part of the working class, and nothing comes easily. A series of brutal encounters destroy his “New World” idealism and educate him in the verities of power and class difference.

这部黑白电影被评论家广为赞誉，它由极少主义导演Jean-Marie Straub 和 Daniele Huillet执导，改编自卡夫卡未完成的小说《美国》。

一个欧洲中产阶级年轻人Karl Rossmann因一件丑闻被迫离乡背井，来到美国。但他总无法摆脱那个旧世界的习惯。他还发现自己变成了工人阶级的一部分，体会到诸事不易。一系列的冷酷遭遇摧毁了他的“新世界”梦想，教给了他权力与阶级差别的真理。
