Filmed live from a deconsecrated Manchester church, this production presents Kenneth Branagh’s powerful interpretation of Shakespeare’s Macbeth. The story follows the Scottish general Macbeth, who receives a prophecy that he will become king, setting in motion a devastating chain of ambition, guilt, and ultimately, tragedy. This ambitious staging brings a unique visual and dramatic intensity to the classic tale of treachery and its consequences.
