In the charming city of Venice, the stories of friendship, love, betrayal and revenge are intertwined, between a noble man who puts his life mortgaging to help his friend, and a evil Jewish man asking a piece of his flesh as brides, and a smart woman who denies a judge's garment to save her husband. This is the Venice merchant, one of the most wonderful plays William Shakespeare, which shows us multiple aspects of humanity and evil, and raises deep questions about us about justice, mercy and tolerance.
