He is a Montague, she is a Capulet – and their families have been separated by bitter enmity for generations. But from the moment Romeo and Juliet look into each other's eyes for the first time, it is clear to both of them that their love is unbreakable, even in a hateful environment. The two meet secretly at night and secretly enter into marriage. But new, personal feelings and old, entrenched relationships clash sooner than expected: when Romeo asks his enemy Tybalt for peace, the quarrel heats up again and causes the first deaths. A series of unfortunate coincidences leads the two lovers and their families to a tragic fate.
