The Stockbroker and the Goddess: Depth psychology through films

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).”

– The Interpretation of Fairy Tales by Marie Louise Von Franz
