Abstract

This study examines that Antigone by Sophocles and Antigone of 2019 by Sophie Deraspe are disaster humanities to describe the reality of national laws causing disaster to individuals. Antigones in the drama and movie experience disaster because of the law in their societies. The laws don’t protect them but give suppression and marginalization. The laws of Athens did not define women as independent subjects. Antigone by Deraspe claims that the law that sentenced Antigone’s sacrifice guilty is unfair. Two works not only describe the resistance against the unjust oppression imposed by the laws but raise public awareness of the disaster inflicted on the week. The movie emphasizes on the solidarity, which means the stop against the violence of the others or the week, and hope for the society coexisting with them.
