A noble but impoverished Venetian asks a friend, Antonio, for a loan to impress an heiress.

His friend agrees, but is forced to borrow the sum from a cynical Jewish moneylender, Shylock, and signs a chilling contract to honour the debt with a pound of his own flesh.

A complex and controversial comedy, The Merchant of Venice explores prejudice and the true nature of justice.
