O título "I como Ícaro" é uma metáfora do mito grego de Ícaro. Ele morreu por voar muito próximo ao sol, quando ele escapou do labirinto de Dédalo e não prestou atenção nas instruções de seu pai. Ele encaixa no tema principal do filme sobre a submissão à autoridade e o destino de um personagem, que chegou próximo da verdade.
