Hamlet browses his desktop. Shakespeare’s play themes become transparent through the use of media. During an evening screen-mirroring, love, grief, anti-depressants, death, self- destruction are intermixed with endless references to pop internet culture, to animation, to current affairs.

Rosencrantz and Guildenstern, minor characters from the play 'Hamlet', find themselves on the road to Elsinore Castle at the behest of the King of Denmark. The duo encounter a band of players before arriving to find that they are needed to try to discern what troubles the prince Hamlet. Meanwhile, they ponder the meaning of their existence.

Ophelia comes of age as lady-in-waiting for Queen Gertrude, and her singular spirit captures Hamlet's affections. As lust and betrayal threaten the kingdom, Ophelia finds herself trapped between true love and controlling her own destiny.
