Antioche

Jade makes lists and meets people on the internet to try and make sense of her revolt. Her best friend, Antigone, who died in Sophocles' play 2,500 years ago, is desperately trying to get her tragedy performed by the school theatre group, which prefers Grease.
As for Inès, Jade's mother, she wanders, distraught, around their suburban home, she who once abandoned everything: country, friends, family, memories, in order to offer her daughter another future.
Taking different directions in a kind of headlong rush, it is in the city of Antioch, a symbolic frontier between East and West, that the protagonists confront their ideals, values and life choices.
Antioch is a play about the revolt of young people who stand up to the absurdities of the world. It's an invigorating battle against inertia, for the ideals that drive us, sometimes to the point of blindness.
