Plot Summary

A soldier is about to be executed because of his disobedience. The execution will be carried out by an ancient machine which engraves a sentence (the committed crime) on a man's skin. What would happen if silent-film fan Franz Kafka were to ask FW Murnau to make a movie of his short story In the Penal Colony?
