Geschichte
A modern day adaptation of the ancient Greek play Lysistrata by Aristophanes, set against the backdrop of gang violence in Chicago.
Zusammenfassung
"In 'Chi-Raq', a modern retelling of Aristophanes' Lysistrata, gang violence becomes the stage for ancient comedy's bold feminist message. Set amidst Chicago's brutal turf wars, a woman named Lysistrata rallies her female peers to withhold intimacy from their partners until they agree to lay down arms."
