Antigone
There was war, as always. A war of brothers. Now it's over. The time has come to praise the fallen and denounce the traitors. Two of Antigone's brothers fell in the war, one was declared a hero and received a state funeral, the other a traitor. His body was abandoned without a grave, food for the birds of the sky. According to King Creon's order, anyone who tries to bury him - will be killed. Antigone, armed with a shovel and a conscience, sets out alone to fight against the law and for the heart and ignites a battle between morality and politics, between family and people, between a young girl and an old ruler.
