Antigone/Rites of Passion(1990)
Antigone/Rites of Passion Synopsis
This first feature by Amy Greenfield brings to the screen the story of the daughter of Oedipus in an emotionally relentless, visually stunning New Music Film Opera which challenges the conventions of narrative cinema to create a genre of its own. The 2500-year-old drama of the woman who defied the state to bury her brother is transformed through stark, ceaseless movement, haunting sounds and music (including themes from Glen Branca, David Van Tieghem, Elliot Sharp and Diamanda Galas) and words of outcry against our own world's injustice.
Antigone/Rites of Passion (1990) is a drama film directed by Amy Greenfield, released on October 31, 1990 with a runtime of 1h 25m. It stars Alan Howard, Bertram Ross, Janet Eilber and Amy Greenfield. Viewers rate it 7.0 out of 10 across 1 ratings.
