“The Deranged”
THE DERANGED is about the self-awakening and coming to one`s senses phase of a well-educated, high level, white-collar businessman, stuck in the wheels of the capital system, he realizes that he has actually been wearing a straight jacket.
The past tends to imprint its tracks on our lives holistically. In this case, his tie is still on and this is symbolic of the transformation of Kafka`s Gregor Samsa character.
One morning when he wakes up he has straight jacket straps on and his tie This is similar to Gregor`s antennas and legs of an insect.
Even though it seems like madness and insanity, in its literal sense it is a reflection of an amazing awakening process through its insanity.
