An exploration of power, justice, faith and mercy, this Shakespeare "problem comedy" veers from slapstick humor to heart-wrenching confrontations. On the verge of joining a religious order, Isabella is called to plead for mercy for her brother Claudio, who has been condemned to death by Angelo. When Angelo proposes that Isabella give up her
virginity to save her brother, a complex plot of betrayal is put into motion.
