"Als introductiefilm toont het filmmuziekseminarie de kortfilm The Administrators van Roman Kochlov. Met een Russische achtergrond en een doorleefd Kafkaiaans verhaal..."

Any suggestions for 'doorleefd verhaal'? There is absolutely no more explanation about the film apart from this extract. I was thinking of something like 'intensely experienced/felt'..
