    Synopsis:
    Hamlet is a contemporary adaptation of the classic play set in New York City, circa 2000 - a world of laptops and limousines.

    The president of the Denmark Corporation was just found dead, and his wife has remarried the man suspected of the murder. Nobody is suffering more than her son Hamlet - who is not only determined to avenge his father`s murder but is also in love with the enchanting but forbidden Ophelia.
