ARACHE. NOT A SPIDER STORY
POLISH TITLE: ARACHNE. NIE O PAJĄKACH
The picture is the screen adaptation of the myth about Arachne. However, it does not present the history in a traditional way, but rather puts a new face to the myth that brings deep content that can help young people in a different perception of
the world. The myth of Arachne is not just a simple story about spiders, but an image showing an important social problem of excessive competition called the "rat race" that is often observed among young people. It often leads to an irreversible tragedy.
