21 min

King Creonte has Antigone imprisoned in a crypt. Buried alive, she looks out at the world from her underground dungeon. According to Elena Gutkina, graduate of the laboratory of Artur Aristakisyan, “The protagonists of the film are the dead, buried in the ground. What do they tell us? The protagonists are the living, mourning their dead. The protagonists are the undead, those who were not buried. We cannot see them, but we can mourn them. How can Antigone be saved? Who is she? Could it be the camera itself?”
