Elektra, daughter of Agamemnon and Clytemnestra, finds a lock of hair on her father’s grave. It belongs to her brother, Orestes, who has returned to Argos to avenge his father’s death.
Masquerading as a foreign traveller and unrecognised by his mother, he gains entry to the palace and kills both Clytemnestra and Aigisthos. He is driven mad by the
Furies, ancient goddesses who avenge crimes against blood relatives.
He flees the city.
