When Antigone buries the body of her rebellious brother, the tyrant Creon condemns her to be buried alive. But the city of Thebes knows Creon's crimes and under cover of night, as they struggle to recover from a bitter civil war, they mourn Antigone and her brother. Creon's decree doesn't come without consequences.
