"I am not Stiller." It is this very first sentence with which Max Frisch begins his novel "Stiller" that is difficult to get out of the minds of his readers. We learn everything and at the same time nothing about the hero who will lead us through the rest of the story. Because the character makes it clear: he is not the Stiller we think he is, he has given himself a new name, a new history, a new nationality, a new identity. The film version of this important novel by Max Frisch is a voyage of discovery into the depths of human identity: perhaps we will get to know this Stiller after all along the way, and thus, hopefully, a little bit about ourselves as well....
