Othello

Streaming video - 1981

An adaptation of Shakespeare's classic drama of envy, jealousy and revenge. Consumed with envy and hatred over Cassio's promotion and seeking retribution, the treacherous, jealousy-ridden soldier Iago plants the seed of suspicion in Othello's mind that his wife Desdemona and Cassio are secret lovers. A commanding tragedy, where relationships are corrupted, and love and trust are distorted into tangled webs of jealousy.
