Jean Cocteau's Orphic trilogy examines the torturous journey of the poet looking for his inner being and authentic, artistic self. Le Testament d’Orphée. Lost in a mystical wilderness, he encounters ghosts and goddesses from the past who precipitate in his death and eventual resurrection. In Le Testament d’Orphée, events follow one another as they do in sleep, when our habits no longer control the forces within us or the logic of the unconscious, foreign to reason. A dream is strictly mad, strictly absurd, strictly magnificent and strictly atrocious. But no part of us ever judges it. We submit to it, without activating the abominable human tribunal that accords itself the right to condemn and absolve. Jean Cocteau, The Art of Cinema.
