Ebenezer Vydrigroš začína vianočné sviatky so svojím obvyklým opovrhnutím. Ale keď ho duchovia Vianoc minulých, prítomných a budúcich vezmú na cestu, ktorá mu otvorí oči a odkryjú mu pravdy, ktorým starý Vydrigroš nechcel uveriť, musí otvoriť svoje srdce a odčiniť zloby, skôr než bude príliš neskoro.
Benátky, 16. storočie. Násilnícky židovský úžerník Shylock je ešte horší ako jeho zlá povesť. Nevynechá žiadnu príležitosť, aby si vychutnal problémy kresťanských šľachticov, ktorých chce zaviesť do svojho domu. Jedného dňa lichvára požiada o pôžičku vážený kupec Antonio, ktorého mladý priateľ Bassanio zúfalo potrebuje peniaze, aby získal ruku svojej milovanej Portie. Keď však Antonio nedokáže peniaze včas splatiť, Shylock si môže vybiť svoje roky ponižovania a opovrhovania na nenávidenom svete aj s úrokmi. Cena, ktorú musí Antonio zaplatiť, bude skutočne bolestivá. Klasická hra Williama Shakespeara ožíva s novou naliehavosťou v rukách režiséra Michaela Radforda.

S využitím špičkového hereckého obsadenia a s dôrazom na vizuálnu krásu svojich filmových obrazov sa Radford vydal cestou klasickej adaptácie.
