導演/Director

保羅．德里森Paul Driessen
對於伊底帕斯而言，女人像是個謎一樣。為什麼在她那惹人厭煩的丈夫終於消失之後，他的情婦會莫名其妙地逃跑？伊底帕斯想破了頭，試圖理解這背後一切的原因…一個送牛奶的颯爽年輕人踏上內省的旅程，在這自我發現和追溯的過程中，回顧了他的人生之路。
本片諷刺的模仿了著名的希臘神話故事，在看似卡通化的角色當中巧妙安置了許多加拿大國家電影局裡的知名人物，經典故事《伊底帕斯》在荒誕的詮釋下成了另一種反向思考的悲喜劇版本。

To Oedipus, women are an enigma. Why, with her bothersome husband finally out of the way, did his mistress inexplicably run off? Don’t lose your head, thinks Oedipus. Just try to understand. And so the valiant young milkman embarks on an introspective journey, a process of self-discovery and regression in which he retraces the path of his life.
Parodying the Greek myth, and throwing in a bunch of well-known NFB animated characters for good measure, director Paul Driessen offers up a backwards tragicomic version of the classic tale. Oedipus is Driessen at his absurdist best.
