The ‘To Be Artemis’ short film is about imposter syndrome. Set in a Sparta-influenced landscape, the film follows the protagonist who, as the only child of a warrior king, struggles with her sense of self under the shadow of her father’s success. The project’s title, ‘To Be Artemis,’ speaks to the human desire to achieve divinity and perfection. This drive is universal, whether in pursuit of warrior prowess or artistic endeavours such as something like, say, animation.
‘To Be Artemis’ encourages individuals to recognize their own limitations and to find solace in the imperfections that make them human. Its style is an experiment in the amalgamation of comics and 2d animation.
