the ( dvd ) movie the tempest and direct by jack bender and be publish in 2001. it do not make it way to german cinema and neither the director or an actor be able to receive an important award for this movie . the movie refers to the shakespearean play the tempest which be publish at the end of the 16th century . the director try to create an modern version of this play and but fail . at the beginning of the movie the plantation owner prosper get in a conflict with his brother antonio about the treatment of their slave . antonio set his brother a trip and try to kill him but with the help of a witch and prosper be able to escape and flees with his daughter and a slave call ariel to a small island nearby the mississippi river . for over twelve year he have live isolate on this island and till a lucky chance enable him to take revenge on his brother . if prosper will be lucky you have to find out by yourself . in my opinion this film be really a bad try to create a modern version of the original play by william shakespeare . the story of the movie be confuse as well a the character . prosper doesn not have the same power a in the tempest . end of part i .
