In this article we analyse a recurrent visual element used at the Euripidean trilogy made by the Greek-Cypriot filmmaker Michael Cacoyannis based on the tragedies Electra, The Trojan Women and Iphigenia at Aulis. Chariots that carried women and horses rode by men become a powerful symbol of the women's inescapable fate and the men's pride and arrogance. By using this cinematographic resource, frequently associated by the director to women stasima, it's effectively emphasized the report against the abuse of authority hidden in the original texts.
