This is a clip from Daphne Unbound, a modern retelling of the ancient Greek myth of Daphne. In the original story, the beautiful Daphne catches the eye of Apollo, who takes flight after her. Unable to outrun the god, Daphne invokes her father, the river god, and he turns her into a laurel so that no man can ever have her. My version of the story instead has Daphne overcome the forces that bind her and she is able to escape the patriarchal influence.
