Watch Lisistrata

Loosely based on the ancient Greek play by Aristophane, this comedy tells the tale of some women of ancient Greece who are so tired of the 20-year war between Athens and Sparta, they decide to withhold sex from their men until they stop fighting. The plan works at first, but then backfires in a most unexpected way -- the men start having sex with each other. The sex boycott eventually ends, but now a whole different sexual mixture and lifestyle has established itself.
