According to Greek mythology, the fall of Icarus (the son of a craftsman named Daedalus) is a story about his attempted escape from Crete in Greece via wings made by his father. The wings were attached to his body by wax and his father warned him not to fly too close to the sun or else the wax will melt and he will not be able to fly anymore. Although, when Icarus is in the air gliding across Greece he forgets his fathers vital advice and gets closer to the sun. The wax melts like his father predicted and he falls to the sea where he drowns to death. From this old myth, i feel the moral is to have fun without it turning into danger and i feel this is a very interesting and different story that could inspire my film for my coursework.
