==Plot==
The film follows the plot of the original play almost faithfully.
On a far off island, Prospero, the rightful Duke of Milan, uses his newfound magic powers to send the titular storm to sink the boat carrying the king and his cohorts who betrayed him. Among the wreck is the king's son Ferdinand who meets Prospero's daughter Miranda and falls in love with her. Meanwhile, King Alonso is washed up with a few other lords, two of whom, Antonio and Sebastian, plan to usurp him. Elsewhere, the king's jester and butler, Trinculo and Stephano, encounter Caliban, Prospero's native servant, who tricks the two into helping with his poorly planned scheme. All the while, Prospero has his sprite servant, Ariel, overlook all the intertwining events.
While faithful, the film does have some divergents. The most notable being changing Gonzalo's gender to Gonzala, thus having the character serve almost as a love interest for Prospero and altering the implications of the text to lean towards it. Adrian was changed to Adriana while Ariel being non-binary is made apparent. The setting is also given an ambiguous time period with much of the slightly anachronistic clothing set up to imply either the distant past or a post-apocalyptic future. The film also allows for multiple edits to depict scenes in the past with Sycorax, who is only mentioned in the play, given a silent cameo in the film.
