A powerful enigma indeed. Here nature literally intrudes upon mankind, interrupting the ideological rhythm and forcing us to interact with total innocence in all of its inconvenience. Herzog does not formulate a grand conclusion here; his view on humanity is varied and complex with much room for further exploration. The film is a question, and I think that in itself is a admirably hopeful gesture from Werner.

Herzog casts Bruno S. as Kaspar, a 40 year old street musician he had seen in a documentary. The casting is sublime. Bruno is no actor, but he inhabits the role of this deep deep stranger incredibly convincingly. His posture, facial expressions and odd mannerisms are those of a complete outsider, yet he's also deeply sympathetic and the viewer can identify with this sublimely alien presence.

Both mysterious and otherworldly tale about a man learning to feel and aprehend things like other people -- but he ultimately has his own way to understand and see things. One of the most impressive physical performances of all time combined with Herzog's confident narrative about human nature, language as both prison and freedom and a satire on society rules over the individual. Very funny yet so painful like most Herzog's 70s films.

T.E.O.K.H is arguably the clearest expression of Herzog's beef with modernity. He fashions this peculiar story about a 'feral' man and the attempts to civilize him as a quasi-anthropological critique of culturalization and the new science with its emphasis on materialist reductionism to explain complex life processes. Bruno S is magnificent as Kaspar--it's an unselfconscious triumph of non-acting--and Herzog strikes the right balance between poetry and realism, humour and pathos.

An intriguing character study that feels appropriately studied at times. Hearing more about this man and his strange existence in Herzog's DVD commentary makes me wonder why there were so many more fascinating moments (especially at the beginning) left out of the film. A very interesting and fascinating watch with the excellent Bruno S. bringing Kasper to life, but the film sure is clunky, with some particularly haggard editing choices.
