About this listen

K. is a land surveyor who arrives in a remote village with the hope of securing a position working for the mysterious Castle that looms over the settlement. But his attempts to gain access to the Castle are thwarted at every turn by confusing rules, indifferent officials, and an opaque system that seems designed to keep him out.

As K. struggles to navigate the labyrinth of the village and its convoluted bureaucracy, he becomes increasingly consumed by the sense that his purpose is both vital and unattainable. With its surreal atmosphere and dreamlike logic, The Castle explores themes of power, alienation, and the futility of striving for meaning in an indifferent world.

A haunting and thought-provoking work, The Castle offers a dark reflection on the human condition and the elusive nature of authority and purpose, leaving listeners to question the very systems that govern our lives.
