Storyboard Text
- ANTIGONEIt is unwise never to admit error or change one's mind and it is exceedingly unwise and dangerous for a ruler, such as Creon, never to admit fault. Antigone also acknowledges that wisdom often comes too late to fix one's errors or avoid disastrous consequences. Antigone, the sister of Eteocles and Polynices, buries Polynices, going against the decision of her uncle Creon and placing her relationship with her brother above human laws.
- Antigone talks to her sister Ismene about her plans of burying her brother Polyneicies. Ismene does not agree to join since Antigone's uncle, Creon, declares that Polyneices' body will be left for the dogs. And then Antigone then later goes on an attempt to give Polyneicies closure , and dusts then buries him.

(Prolouge, 53-60)
