Great Britain 2025, Director: Chloe Zhao, Length: 125 minutes
DA: Jessie Buckley, Paul Mescal, Joe Alwin, Emily Watson and others.
William Shakespeare is fascinated by Agnes, a woman who is more rooted in untamed nature than in the conventions of society. Opposites attract. The woman, who owns a falcon and can read and interpret people and nature alike, and the Latin teacher, who is fed up with his pupils, take a liking to each other; he to her outspoken tone and non-conformist nature, she to his pronounced perseverance and cultural competence. Against all opposition from their families, the two become a married couple, Susanna is born and the twins Judith and Hamnet are born. Then the plague rages in England. Hamnet dies and his death threatens to tear the family apart. Mescal's Shakespeare is an invalid. His suffering, which stops just short of suicide, flows into great art: the tragedy "Hamlet". The performance of the play in London shapes the finale of the film.
