- Synopsis
- 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.
  In this contemporary version of the Ancient Greek myth, a 30 year old Theodore has everything a man can wish for, but he craves more - he wants a true challenge that will take him to the limit. Theodore chooses to abandon his family, career, and friends only to find out that his greatest confrontation will be with himself.
  Director was particularly interested to find out why a handsome and overall fortunate man says he never feels happy.
