Descriptiontranslated from Hebrew (original)
On the eve of setting out for war in Troy, Agamemnon faces an impossible choice: sacrifice his daughter Iphigenia so that the Greek fleet can set sail, or abandon his army. Against a backdrop of dusty, rugged landscapes, Michael Cacoyannis adapts Euripides’ powerful tragedy into an outstanding drama—highly contemporary in many respects—that explores the timeless concepts of duty and sacrifice. Don’t miss it.
