Nuevo episodio de las peripecias del ‘enfant sauvage’ Gaspar Hauser, acompañado de su inseparable y bienquerido caballito de madera. Sujeto imposible, Gaspar tiene en esta ocasión la personalidad fragmentada en cinco personajes arquetípicos: un enano sadomasoquista, una seductora doncella, un tipo cínico y déspota, un marinero romántico y un batman patético, encarnado este último por el propio director de la película. Un antihéroe de bata y zapatillas, fumador compulsivo, reflejo de la inadaptacion en la que está inmiscuido el hombre decepcionado, el hombre que piensa, el hombre que es de este mundo sin serlo.
Here is a new episode of the adventures of the enfant sauvage Kaspar Hauser together with his inseparable and loved wooden horse. On this occasion Kaspar, an untenable subject, possesses the personality of five archetypical figures: a sadomasochist dwarf, a seductive maiden, a cynic and despotic fellow, a romantic sailor and a pathetic batman that, in this movie is played by the director himself. This is a portrait of an antihero dressed in robe and slippers, a compulsive smoker, a true image of the maladjustments that so well depict the state of a disappointed humanity, one that is given to thinking, one that belongs to this world, but, yet, it never does so.
