About
Venice, 1596. Bassanio begs his friend Antonio, a prosperous merchant, to lend him a large sum of money so that he can woo Portia, a very wealthy heiress; but Antonio has invested his fortune abroad, so they turn to Shylock, a Jewish moneylender, and ask him for a loan.
Sun-drenched canals and opulent Venetian ballrooms mask a suffocating tension fueled by religious prejudice and predatory lending. This Shakespearean adaptation trades stagey artifice for a visceral, heavy atmosphere where every legal loophole feels like a blade.
