O-Othello (O-othello)

The film sets the tragedy of ‘Othello’ at South Carolina boarding school, where Odin James, the only black kid in a high school full of rich white kids, has been brought to the school for his skill on the basketball court. He is about to lead his team through the play-offs, and he has recently won the love of a dean’s daughter, Desi. Hugo, one of the other basketball players and the son of their coach, the Duke, feels neglected by his father and overshadowed by Odin. He forms a vicious plan. His vendetta is two-fold: snag Desi and bring Odin down; and this will result in a bloody and all too familiar disaster.
