"The Hunchback of Notre-Dame" is a poignant tale set in 15th-century Paris, centered around the tragic character of Quasimodo, the deformed bell-ringer of Notre-Dame Cathedral. Lonely and misunderstood, Quasimodo becomes infatuated with the beautiful gypsy Esmeralda, who shows him kindness. As a love triangle forms between Esmeralda, Quasimodo, and the obsessed archdeacon Claude Frollo, themes of love, obsession, and societal judgment unfold. The story explores the depths of human emotion amid the backdrop of a vibrant yet turbulent Paris, ultimately leading to themes of sacrifice and the quest for acceptance in a world that often shuns those who are different.
