ACT 3
RETURN
After interrogating the controlling image and
seeing reality - this led to the thesis proposal.
Just like the prisoner who returned to the cave
to free his companions, telling the story was
the important aspect. In the original Allegory,
he was killed because they where afraid
to blindly follow his claims. In this proposal
however, the approach of writing a poetic
story (written from the perspective of the FOX)
sheds light on the negative controlling image.
Whilst still resonating to viewer emotions.
