“Each vase has a story to tell, if only you have the eyes to read it.” In this charming silent film, a drawing student’s daydream at the Metropolitan Museum of Art awakens the ancient Greek myth of Perseus. The odyssey leads through odd encounters—an old woman with a single eye, western‑sea nymphs—and culminates in a dramatic showdown with Medusa.
