Alan Yentob travels to the ghetto in Venice with award-winning novelist Howard Jacobson as he embarks on a retelling of Shakespeare's most performed play, The Merchant of Venice. Through a series of lively - often fiery - interviews, they examine the charge of anti-Semitism against Shakespeare, whose character Shylock remains one of the most odious and divisive fictional Jews in history. How did the moneylender from Venice become such a useful propaganda tool in Nazi Germany?

Interviewees include Antony Sher, Anthony Julius and Stephen Greenblatt.
