剧情介绍
Gaetano decided that he would bury his deceased brother with his family at all costs, even if it meant defying the laws of his Sicilian village and putting himself and his family in danger.
Gaetano, a quiet young man, lives near the bedside of his father and works alone to manage the family bakery. Although his French baguettes are well liked, as the Paris-born son of a Sicilian mother and French father, the village has never accepted him. When his wastrel elder brother dies committing a crime that results in the death of two others, Gaetano assumes his family responsibility to bury him next to their mother. But in this village, the weight of tradition is omnipotent. The mayor Enza enforces the law like an underworld don, declaring there is no place for bad people to be buried beside the good in the municipal cemetery. She denies Gaetano access to his brother's body. Enza's daughter Anna is Gaetano's lover. She witnesses his resolve and encourages Gaetano to take a stand for his family honor, even as doing so will put his life in danger.
看完之后我赶紧百度了一下《安提戈涅》:安提戈涅是古希腊悲剧作家索福克勒斯公元前442年的一部作品,被公认为是戏剧史上最伟大的作品之一。该剧在剧情上是忒拜三部曲中的最后一部,但是最早写就的。剧中描写了俄狄浦斯的女儿安提戈涅不顾国王克瑞翁的禁令,将自己的兄长,反叛城邦的波吕尼刻斯安葬,而被处死,而一意孤行的国王也遭致妻离子散的命运。剧中人物性格饱满,剧情发展丝丝相扣。安提戈涅更是被塑造成维护神权/自然法,而不向世俗权势低头的伟大女英雄形象,激发了后世的许多思想家如黑格尔、克尔凯郭尔、德里达等的哲思。
