The adaptation of Stefan Zweig's book is also well-executed, offering a fresh perspective to the story while remaining true to its essence. His portrayal is stunning, skillfully capturing the transformation of the character before and after his arrest, with remarkable emotional depth. The film's strengths lie first and foremost in the incredible acting performance of Oliver Masucci as Joseph Bartok. Starring Oliver Masucci and Albrecht Schuch, the film delves into the poignant story of Joseph Bartok, a former Viennese notary who recalls the traumas of war, from his arrest by the Gestapo to his time spent in isolation, while clinging to a chess book found in his cell as a lifeline to overcome his psychological suffering.
"The Royal Game," directed by Philipp Stölzl in 2021, is a historical drama thriller based on the eponymous literary work by Stefan Zweig.
