Overview

The evil spirit Caliban tries to oppose the world of Good that Prospero creates around him. The dual image of Prospero-Ariel represents two human souls, striving to unite people divided by hatred... This is a version of the play directed by Anatoly Efros in 1983 as part of the December Evenings at the A.S. Pushkin State Museum of Fine Arts. It was specially revived for a television recording in 1988 to mark the anniversary of Efros’s death.
