The very idea of a modern reworking of a classical text itself gets a modern reworking in Sophie Deraspe’s supple and impassioned “Antigone,” a contemporary spin on the Greek tragedy that feels refreshingly liberated by the spirit of Sophocles’ original material, rather than slavishly devoted to its letter.
One day, rushing to the defense of his gang-affiliated brother, Étéocle is shot dead by police, and Polynice is arrested for assaulting the officer thereafter. As he is no longer a minor, and already has a record of petty crime, the weak-willed Polynice faces deportation. Antigone, convinced he will not be able to cope and aware that her own status as a legal minor will make her punishment much lighter, enacts a bizarre plan to impersonate her brother so that he can escape custody and flee.
