Widows
by Ariel Dorfman

Widows

Synopsis

A smouldering political allegory from the author of Death and the Maiden, written in collaboration with Tony Kushner, author of Angels in America

In a war-torn village the men have disappeared.

The women - their mothers, wives, daughters - wait by the river, hope and mourn.

Their anguish is unspoken until bruised and broken bodies begin being washed up on the banks and the women defy the military in the only form of protest left to them.
