Movies and TvShows featuring "myth-of-narcissus" theme.

ORA is an experimental short film that interweaves the concepts of thermal imaging, dance, and the mythology of Prometheus and Narcissus. Through stunning visuals and poetic storytelling, the film delves into the relationship between humans, technology, and self-obsession. It offers a unique and thought-provoking viewing experience that challenges traditional narrative structures.

Narcissus (from Greek Narkissos) shares the root nark-, with narcosis and narcotic. All these words have the same origin in the verb narkaō – to intoxicate through a strong smell. I was particularly interested to find out why a handsome and overall fortunate man says he never feels happy. He draws people in, but ends up hurting them, yet he is impossible to resist.
