Shakespeare’s most enduring tragedy is re-imagined in a bold, modern adaptation set within London’s elite South Asian community. When Hamlet (Riz Ahmed) returns for his father’s funeral, he is stunned to discover his uncle Claudius is marrying his newly widowed mother. Visited by his father’s ghost, Hamlet learns his brutal murder was at the hands of Claudius — and spirals into a quest for vengeance that exposes the rot at the heart of the family’s empire and threatens his own sanity.

“Playing the title character as a fragile man dangerously unravelling, Ahmed brings considerable passion to indelible lines — but the real force comes from the emotional authenticity he lends one of drama’s most formidable and familiar roles.” (Screen International)

““To be or not to be” is the question that every filmmaker considering a new take on ‘Hamlet’ should seriously ask themselves before they embark on a project, but this one makes it clear that the genre is alive and well for the moment. “ (IndieWire)
