La leggenda di Kaspar Hauser (English: The Legend of Kaspar Hauser) is a surreal drama based on "the legend" of Kaspar Hauser.

In this modern western-like re-interpretation featuring Vincent Gallo, a music-obsessive Kaspar washes up on a Mediterranean beach, where half a dozen protagonists try to make sense of who he is.

The film was first presented at the Rotterdam International Film Festival 2012.

Synopsis

Une île rocailleuse baignée de soleil, époque indéfinie, un ailleurs. Un corps s'échoue sur la plage. C'est celui de Kaspar Hauser, le prince héritier mystérieusement volatilisé à l'enfance. Ce corps réanimé qui refait surface semble avoir perdu l'esprit. Son apparition trouble la routine insulaire. Qui est Kaspar Hauser ? Un souverain, un idiot, un imposteur ? Inquiète, la Grande Duchesse de l'île appelle à la rescousse son amant, Pusher, dealer et tueur à gage. Inconscient de la menace qui pèse sur lui, l'étrange garçon apprend la vie auprès du Shérif...un ancien DJ qui voit en lui le nouveau Messie.
