About this listen
Otto Papesch was my father. I was four years old when he died. I asked myself for years what kind of a human being he was. I have attempted to paint a picture of that handsome, charismatic, cultivated, professional chemical engineer, enthusiastic sportsman, photographer, and family man by basing myself on the vast correspondence that still exists—his diary of 1917, stories about him from my mother and grandparents, and the innumerable photos he took over the years.
This has been an attempt to describe his prominent characteristics, but also shed light on his dilemmas and the contradictions in his personality and thereby to describe the important events of his short life. Would his destiny have been different had he been born a year later?
