Joosep - Tumblr Posts

thinking about how much the beginning and end of klass mirror one another.

kaspar, despite caring for and wanting to protect joosep, is always watching. as the movie began, he watched the violence everyone inflicted on joosep. he did not step in; he did not say anything. no one did.

later on, in the very last scene of the movie, there is one final act of aggression against joosep: his death. though it is self inflicted, it goes to show that violence has always been a part of joosep’s life.

once more, kaspar watches. he doesn’t pull the trigger on himself. he doesn’t stop joosep. he stands there, eyes wide and trained on the boy in front of him.

kaspar has always been passive, even after their attack. he sees the boy he’s dedicated his life to die, and he simply stands there. he does not act. he does not have input on anything that is happening.
