A modern Romeo and Juliet adaptation that follows Shakespeare's beloved characters through found footage, movement, and the poison that lingers when two worlds collide
VENOM is an experimental contemporary reimagining of Shakespeare’s Romeo and Juliet, exploring love, rivalry, identity, and the destructive forces that surround young people searching for connection. Set against the intensity of modern relationships and social expectations, VENOM follows two individuals drawn together by an undeniable connection while caught in a world shaped by conflict, desire, and the consequences of inherited hatred. Blurring the lines between romance and tragedy, the film examines how love can become both salvation and destruction. Through a stylized visual language and emotionally charged performances, VENOM transforms a classic story of forbidden love into a raw exploration of obsession, vulnerability, and the choices that define us.
