"AntigonaFuriosa" renews the ancient grief and pious fury of the Greek tragedy "Antigone" in light of Argentina's "Dirty War" disappearances.

As Antigona calls out for the burial of her brother, the cries of the mothers of those executed by the Argentinian government merge voices into a moving furious dirge.

This upcoming Sunday might just be the most important day of the year. On this day, the stars align and deserving people are showered with gold.
