Leather Narcissus

1968 · 28 min · Fantasy

Filmed in and around New York City, the film tells the fascinating story, in modern fantasy, of the Narcissus myth.

A head-to-toe leather-man parades around New York and becomes trapped in a Times Square haunt with a particularly seductive motorbike and floor-to-ceiling mirrors. The leather-man then emulates his namesake Greek myth by shagging himself, thanks to glorious optical-printing trickery.
