The tragedy of William Shakespeare’s Othello set in the present-day context of the underworld of the Lazio coast. Edoardo Leo’s Non sono quello che sono tells a great classic as a news story in the early 2000s against the backdrop of Rome and the neighbouring towns of Anzio and Nettuno on the coast south of the capital.
Produced by Groenlandia, Italian International Film and Vision Distribution in collaboration with Sky, the film stars Edoardo Leo, Jawad Moraqib, Ambrosia Caldarelli, Antonia Truppo, Matteo Olivetti, Michael Schermi and Vittorio Viviani. The director chose to play the role of evil Iago, while Othello and Desdemona are played by Jawad Moraqib, Ambrosia Caldarelli.
The result is the exploration of a highly topical evil – despite the original text being more than 400 years old – where racism, violence, envy, machismo and femicide reign supreme.

The story of Shakespeare's Othello does not need to be told. It only needs to be read, exactly as it was written, the force of the words alone brings it into the present. Iago, Othello, Desdemona are, unfortunately, still among us. Today’s crime news in a great classic. Set in the early 2000s, this is a timeless story where good and evil mingle in a vortex of deceit, betrayal and mad jealousy.
