Antigone believes that her brother, Polynesis should be buried, and Creon disagrees. Haimon wants to marry Antigone, but when she is put in a cave he kills himself along with Antigone. The theme of Antigone is tension and fate. Tension is created by Antigone burying her brother, and Creon doesn't like that. I hope this helps!
