Lysistrata by Aristophanes follows an Athenian woman named Lysistrata who, fed up with the ongoing Peloponnesian War, organises a meeting with Greek women to propose a bold plan: they will withhold sex from their husbands until peace is agreed upon. Despite initial resistance, they all agree and take a solemn oath. The women also seize the Acropolis treasury to financially cripple the war, leading to clashes and comedic debates as they push for peace. Explicit sexual content.
