Freely inspired by the classic play by Sophocles, Antigone in Spring takes us to a fictional Qu嶵ec where dead birds fall from the sky, covering highways, rooftops, and parks. The citizens demand an explanation, but the answer never comes. The government, led by the autocratic Creon, refuses to tell the truth. A revolution is brewing, however, and the youth of the population and their supporters, inflamed by the unprecedented ecological disaster, are calling for freedom. Amid this upheaval, Antigone and her brothers, Polynices and Eteocles, narrate their tale. Born into a happy family that flees from the world every summer to their cottage in Rivi鋨e-尒ernit? they live in the certainty that the world is a safe place of warmth and honesty. But after returning to the city for school they accidentally learn the truth: their mother Jocasta is married to her own son, Oedipus, who is both their father and their brother. Everything falls apart, and the three siblings are caught up in the revolution sweeping through the city.
Written in free verse and inspired by the courage and integrity of the protesters during the student demonstrations that rocked the streets of Montr嶧l in 2012, Antigone in Spring is an ode to all the revolutions in the world whose stories remain untold.
