A talented ensemble cast bring Euripides masterpiece to life. The Bacchae (also called The Bacchants or Bakchai in Greek) tells the story of the god Dionysus who comes to the city of Thebes disguised as a charismatic young man accompanied by a throng of erotic female maenads. The immortal play is a study in fanatical religions and confronts the personal balance that we all must find between order and spontaneity.

Crappy film

Konterr

Brilliant and touching

A Major Disappointment

Rio Hayward

All of these films share one commonality, that being a kind of emotional center that humanizes a cast of monsters.
