It began 2500 years ago, and still there is no end in sight: Up to the present day, Sophocles’ Antigone and her grim story have puzzled generations of readers in countless translations, productions and adaptations. As a model, the material has inspired us through the ages to both understand and question society and its written and unwritten laws. What do we believe in so strongly that we want and have to break existing laws? Which laws and systems can in fact be broken anymore in our supposedly limitless and all-available world? How high is the price of freedom?
