'Antigone': Creon and Antigone

Creon has outlawed the burial of Polynices but Antigone, believing that God's law is above state law, chooses to ignore this and is punished. This relationship is made more complicated as Creon is Antigone's uncle and she is betrothed to his son Haemon. This film features interviews with Christopher Eccleston (Creon), Polly Findlay (Director) and Jodie Whittaker (Antigone) and archive footage from the 2012 National Theatre production.
