Starring Vanessa Redgrave as Hecuba. Directed by Laurence Boswell
The first great war between the east and the west is over. Troy has fallen
and the victorious Greek coalition forces are on their way home. Hecuba,
once queen of Troy, now a prisoner of war, is being transported back to
Athens with other war booty, the women of Troy. Having lost her home, her
husband and most of her children, what does this proud and brave woman do
when she is asked by her captors to give up her daughter's life having discovered
on the same day that her surviving son has been murdered?
