Narcissus & Echo

Intensidades Films

12 min. Directed by Maria Lorente
Description:

Narcissus & Echo is a feminist reinterpretation of the myth of Narcissus who is punished by the gods falling in love with his own reflection and Echo who is also punished by a goddess unable to speak for herself.

In the original myth, Echo is in love with Narcissus, who looks at the river saying that he loves himself until he ends up falling into the water and drowning. And Echo can only satisfy his love by repeating Narcissus's words. But in this movie Narcissus, saying "I love myself", urges Echo to repeat it and that is how to break the magic. This movie is a call to self-love before being obsessed by others.
