Women of Troy (2017)

The morning after. The Greeks have won the Trojan War. The men are dead, the city is sacked and a terrible new dawn, as slaves and concubines, is the fate of the surviving Trojan women.

Euripides’ third part of a tragedy trilogy is a bleak commentary on the harsh inhumanity of the Peloponnesian War that was reshaping the Greek world of his time.

A familiar order upturned, faiths questioned and individuals deeply impacted, Euripides’ anti-war classic gives agency to feminine and alternative perspectives rarely recorded in the history of power struggles.

Fittingly, it remains as insightful for the turbulent times today.
