A boy eating lunch in a 1950s-style kitchen plays war with his surrounding toys. A bomb blast outside the window frightens him under the table from where he is rescued and taken to an Amphitheatre, where an invisible audience cheers. An army resembling the Terracotta Army enters; Romans under the command of Titus Andronicus, the general at the center of the play, return victorious from war. They bring back as spoils Tamora, Queen of the Goths, her sons, and Aaron the Moor. Titus sacrifices Tamora's eldest son, Alarbus, so the spirits of his 21 dead sons might be appeased. Tamora eloquently begs for the life of Alarbus, but Titus refuses her plea.

Titus 1999 a movie by Julie Taymor Writers William Shakespeare (play), Julie Taymor (screenplay) War begets revenge. Victorious general, Titus Andronicus, returns to Rome with hostages: Tamora queen of the Goths and her sons. He orders the eldest hewn to appease the Roman dead. He declines the proffered emperor's crown, nominating Saturninus, the last ruler's venal elder son. Saturninus, to spite his brother Bassianus, demands the hand of Lavinia, Titus's daughter. When Bassianus, Lavinia, and Titus's sons flee in protest, Titus stands against them and slays one of his own. Saturninus marries the honey-tongued Tamora, who vows vengeance against Titus. The ensuing maelstrom serves up tongues, hands, rape, adultery, racism, and Goth-meat pie. There's irony in which two sons survive.

Truth is heavy
Weighs down on my head
Once again innocence comes to an end
There's a girl just like the ones that I love
Can't afford to get high
She sells her body for the drugs because
Truth is harsh
Truth in unreal
Times are hard
It's going to get harder still
Truth is heavy
Weighs a ton
Cold as ice
Burns like the sun
There's a kid just like me
Can't get by, he's going to get a gun because the truth is harsh still
Truth is harsh
Waking up is getting harder and harder and harder
Don't know if I can keep living this life much further
I need an escape
