Antigone's brother, Polyneices, has been declared a traitor and is forbidden to be buried. However, Antigone believes that it is her duty to give her brother a proper burial according to the religious customs of their society. She defies the orders of her uncle, King Creon, and buries her brother anyway. As a result, she is sentenced to death.
