“Tell me on Tuesday”, wrote Franz Kafka in a letter to Milena Jesenská. He planned to visit her on Tuesday, stopping in Vienna on the way to Prague. “It would be most sensible to tell you today where I would like to wait for you, but I would suffocate till we met.... Is there in the world, Milena, as much patience as is necessary for me? Tell me on Tuesday. Kafka’s longing to see Milena again, before he was able to spend four days with her in Vienna, was marked by delay, and a transition to written form in letters and diary entries. Those days in July, 1920, remain a blank. Astrid Ofner matched Kafka’s love letters to Milena with fragile images that permit the existence of that blank space, making it visible rather than filling it in. Sylvie Rohrer reads Kafka’s notes in a voice over, anchoring his texts in the flow of images with a gentle voice, while von Webern’s music creates carefully floating worlds of sound. A rare view of Vienna.
