The young Karl Roßmann is sent across the Atlantic to make a scandal forgettable. His flight results in a physical and emotional journey through an idealized, ultimately unreachable America.

With his novel fragment Amerika (later published under the title Der Verschollene), Kafka created a counterproposal to the prevailing legends of the American Dream and its promises: Instead of individual social ascent, which supposedly should be open to anyone hardworking, Karl experiences a continuous decline, encountering a world full of misunderstandings and alienation in his search for identity and belonging, where dreams and hopes shatter against the confrontation with reality.

Karl's encounters and experiences thus open the door to a deep exploration of themes such as autonomy, control, and the illusion of freedom in a society dominated by hierarchies and rigid structures.
