Comparison between Euripides's play and Von Trier's film help

I just saw this film in one of my classes and I have to say the quiet mood settled the sepia aesthetic of the film. Von Trier using Carl Dreyer's script narrates the story of Medea as a role changing progress as Medea begins in her own prison and facing exile while Jason roams free to marry Kreon's daughter. The rhythm of the film is paused but it is appropriate for the director's meta theatrical vision of it. I could see that in most of his films, he always has a scene where the protagonist lies somewhere in the ground, the internal expressions flowing as the camera zooms. Now, for what I could find on differences between the play and this film aside from the dialogue are (spoiler alert) how Medea killed her two children. Truly, the image of them dying is unsettling and realistically disturbing when the first child cries before being hanged to the assisted suicide of the other one.
