A reformed gay Christian, a bank robber, a left-wing German terrorist, and a martial artist tell us their stories. On the surface, these four people lead very different lives, but through the lens of Greek tragedy, Jessica Yu finds a way to reveal their deep-rooted similarities. As the film progresses, the motivations behind each man’s unique trajectory become profoundly intertwined. With its beautiful crosscutting among scenes from Euripides, ingenious re-enactments, and starkly focused interviews, this innovative film provides a rich tapestry that challenges us to reflect on the relationship of individual lives to the archetypal human experience.  AT
