Electra

  (1962)
Elektra; Ilektra
The kingdom of Mycenae has fallen into anguish: Their leader, Agamemnon, has been brutally murdered; his son, Orestes (Yannis Fertis), has fled the city; and his daughter, Electra (Irene Papas), has become a prisoner in her own castle. But when Electra speaks with a sacred oracle, she begins her bloody quest for justice -- and revenge. Greek filmmaker Michael Cacoyannis retells Euripides's classic tragedy with style and grace.
