The Heroes Journey

An ordinary person experiences the call to gnosis and enters a strange new world where it will take all of his (or her) courage to rescue a damsel in distress (the soul), defeat the monster (the Demiurge) and find the treasure (knowledge). Gnostic movies like Gattaca, Donnie Darko and Hedwig and the Angry Inch explore the archetypal quest of gnostic myth in some of its most compelling forms.
