Agamemnon & Iphigenia

The first of a grim pair of episodes depicting filicide within Greek myths. We piece together the story of Agamemnon's sacrificing Iphigenia for favorable winds - and the fallout of such action after the war. All this with an eye for how the choices parents make either support or harm the parents' individuation.
