The Moor general Othello makes an enemy of his ensign Iago when he promotes the younger Cassio over him. Iago vows revenge, and schemes to make Othello believe that his new bride, the fair Desdemona, has been unfaithful to him.
Othello's suspicious and distrustful nature makes him easy prey to Iago's manipulations. His obsessive love for Desdemona soon turns into uncontrolled jealousy, with tragic consequences for all involved.
A tale of ambition, envy, treachery and eventually murder, Othello is one of Shakespeare's finest tragedies.
