This modern retelling of William Shakespeare's final masterpiece is an exciting, mystical, and magical fantasy. Exiled to a magical island, the sorceress Prospera conjures up a storm that shipwrecks her enemies, and then unleashes her powers for revenge.

COMMUNITY REVIEWS
I wanted to like it... submitted by thesrays on August 8, 2018, 10:04pm I was intrigued by the idea of a female Prospero...thinking it would make for a more sympathetic main character...but I just couldn't get into it. I'm a fan of Shakespeare, but I couldn't even finish the DVD.
