"Visually stunning... a remarkably beautiful film." -The Hollywood Reporter
Legendary Italian director Franco Zeffirelli (Romeo and Juliet) and renowned tenor Placido Domingo unite their mighty talents for this lavish production of composer Guiseppe Verdi's classic opera based on Shakespeare's timeless, tragic masterpiece Othello.
Victorious general Otello (Domingo) returns in triumph to his adopted city of Venice after vanquishing its foes at sea. But not everyone is poised to give him a hero's welcome. Even as his beautiful wife Desdemona (Katia Ricciarelli) lavished him with affection, Iago (Justino Diaz), a disgruntled ensign, plots his downfall. And when Iago uses Otello's own jealous nature against him, he drives a wedge between husband and wife... with devastating consequences!
