This movie is a reflection on the nature of human existence. It highlights the uncontrollable nature of emotions ( read madness) and the impact they have on our lives. I have found solace in Albert Camus' essay The Myth of Sisyphus. He uses the Greek myth of Sisyphus to explore the absurdity of life. Sisyphus is condemned to eternally roll a boulder up a hill, only for it to roll back down each time he reaches the top. Camus sees this as a metaphor for human existence, where life lacks inherent meaning, and our efforts can seem futile. However, instead of despair, Camus suggests that one can find freedom and contentment by embracing this absurdity, accepting the lack of meaning, and continuing to live fully in defiance of it. In this way, Sisyphus becomes a symbol of human resilience and the search for personal meaning in an indifferent universe.
