A darkly comic, philosophically dense meditation on fate, free will, and meaninglessness, told through the bewildered perspective of two minor characters caught in forces beyond their control.

Rosencrantz and Guildenstern, minor characters from the play 'Hamlet', find themselves on the road to Elsinore Castle at the behest of the King of Denmark. The duo encounter a band of players before arriving to find that they are needed to try to discern what troubles the prince Hamlet. Meanwhile, they ponder the meaning of their existence.
