‘Adreça desconeguda’

Lluís Homar and Eduard Fernández direct and interpret this adaptation of the story of American writer Kressmann Taylor (1903-1996), first published in 1938 in the magazine Story and later, because of its great success as an independent book.

Address Unknown (its original title) is considered a visionary and shocking work, the action situates us in California in 1932. The German Martin Schulse decides to return to Munich and to leave his partner and friend, the Jew Max Eisenstein in charge of his art gallery. They begin a correspondence at first affectionate, but which soon tends toward horror and fanaticism with the new situation prevailing in Germany as a backdrop.

The text is a complaint against Nazism and caused a stir at the time of publication, a story too hard to be signed by a woman, according to the editor of Story, who apparently removed the name of the writer, Katherine, in the authorship.
