based on Macbeth by William Shakespeare
Based on the characters created by William Shakespeare, The Weïrd Sisters takes a radical look at the bard's iconic purveyors of mysticism and chaos. Cloaked in darkness and born out of a perversion of the laws of nature, these three women weave their wicked ways. A daring and dynamic colour palette and a twisting of time brings the daughters of Hecate to the screen as they have never been seen before.
Drawing on a deep knowledge of Shakespeare's canon, this film compiles the appearances of the three witches and wraps them in the iconography of the murderous Scottish king.
