About the Film
Shakespeare''s Merchant is a fast-paced modern re-telling of William Shakespeare’s The Merchant of Venice. The society in which Shakespeare''s story is set is one where casual racism is an accepted fact of life, and the “outsider” is always suspect. This adaptation takes an unflinching view of this society and the actions of its inhabitants. The film''s dialogue consists of Shakespeare''s text, although it somewhat updated for the sake of clarity. The film''s setting is not Shakespeare''s Venice, but an unspecified place and time that resembles the present day.

About the Score
Shakespeare''s Merchant is a short movie with an epic score. In many places music is used in a way that resembles opera, where the orchestra frequently carries the subtext and the emotional weight. Helping to set a scene where people are routinely nasty to each other, Michael Kaulkin''s score is mostly dark and tense, with some lyrical and humorous moments.
