On the streets of a damp metropolis lie the corpses of hundreds and hundreds of boys and girls. No one can give them a resting place because of a law enacted by a repressive State. But the young Antigone, with the help of a foreigner, Tiresias, violates this rule in the name of pietas, undermining the established order.

i could go professional in watching shitty Italian movies on double speed. i get this is supposed to be satire but it is more heavy handed than the fascist government depicted. Fun music though !!!
