A high powered stockbroker is changed by an encounter with a beautiful women. Adapted from an old African folk tale. This film was made during quarantine on a micro-budget. Folk tales are great vehicles for reflection. Depth psychology through films!

“…all fairy tales endeavor to describe one and the same psychic fact, but a fact so complex and far-reaching, and so difficult for us to realize…that hundreds of tales and thousands of repetitions…variations are needed until this unknown fact is delivered into consciousness…This unknown fact is what Jung calls the Self, which is the psychic totality of an individual….Different fairy tales give average pictures of different phases of (this psychic reality).”

Another super fun film! I love the music. And it makes me think about encounters in my life that have change my life. She was really on the hero’s journey I think.
Yes! Exactly right. Great to think about all those times we’ve been touched by something divine. The original African story is about that. Thank you for your comment.
