Synopsis

Based on the classic play by Shakespeare, the script is adapted from the original story and has been given a modern twist and sensibility.
Our hero, Othello, is young and handsome and soon to be successful. Along with his childhood friend, Iago, he has carved out for himself a bolstering career in the music industry. One of the big record labels is signing him and his future looks golden. Now Othello has it all, including the love of his life, the beautiful Desdimonda, but despite Othello’s undying love for her, her father refuses to approve of their relationship and will do anything to keep them apart. And there is someone else who wants to shatter Othello’s wonderful life – Iago. Jealousy and rage burn inside him as he is side-lined in the music deal and desires Desdemona from afar. Scheming plots and plans emerge and it can only end in tragedy.
