This is a very unique world of images. The mirror once again shows its unique charm. Putting on rubber gloves, Ofi walked through a mirror that looked like mercury, and came to the underworld to stand trial. There is no surreal spectacle in this world, it is just a ruined wall destroyed by war....

The second part of Cocteau's trilogy of poets is undoubtedly the most narrative. The mirror into another space that appeared in the first two chapters of "Blood of the Poet" becomes the protagonist in this film, becoming a bridge connecting the two realms of Yin and Yang.

To put it bluntly, creation is based on heterotopia. Heterotopia is a field of fictional construction and mutual interaction, and fantasy of heterotopia is also the source of creative power. Almodovar's "Speak to Her" and Fellini's "Night of Kabylia" are also heterotopias. Of course, Orpheus's...
