Screenplay by Michael Haneke; produced by Veit Heiduschka, Christina Undritz; cinematography by Jirí Stibr; film editing by Andreas Prochaska; production design by Christoph Kanter; costume design by Lisy Christl.

Cast: Ulrich Mühe (K.), Susanne Lothar (Frieda), Frank Giering (Artur), Felix Eitner (Jeremias), Nikolaus Paryla (Vorsteher), André Eisermann (Barnabas), Dörte Lyssewski (Olga), Inga Busch (Amalia), Norbert Schwientek (Bürgel), Hans Diehl (Erlanger), Birgit Linauer (Pepi), and Udo Samel (Narrator).Summary: K. arrives at an isolated village to take up his position as a land surveyor for officials at the Castle. No one will confirm or deny his appointment, and his attempts to approach and appeal to Castle officials are met with indifference, obstinacy, and bureaucratic red tape. K. has status but no position, two dolts for assistants, the forlorn barmaid Frieda as a fiancée, and arguments with everyone. An icy blizzard blows unendingly, immeasurable time passes, and K. trudges repeatedly back and forth, waiting for the smallest scrap of information or news from the Castle, that they have need of him, or at least recognition of his existence.
