With no love story, Shakespeare’s "Coriolanus" is about the battlefield, riots, exile and revenge. Gaius Martius, a brillant Roman general, is undefeatable in battle, but fails to please his tribunes and citizens.

The banished general then teams up with the enemy leader in an assault on Rome. Persuaded by his mother, he finally withdraws, only to be killed by his new ally.

Two rock bands bring the ferocious battle scenes to life. And sixty rugged security guards play the rioters, giving the drama a realistic feel.
