An intriguing, imaginative, colorful, thought-provoking, star-studded (Derek Jacobi, David Thewlis, and Joely Richardson) political thriller set amidst the colorful backdrop of 17th-century England during the Essex Rebellion and the succession of Queen Elizabeth I (Vanessa Redgrave) that presents the scenario in which the classic plays and sonnets of William Shakespeare (Rafe Spall) were actually written by Edward De Vere, Earl of Oxford (Rhys Ifans), who coerced playwright Ben Johnson (Sebastian Armesto) to safeguard his writings and to stage his work anonymously.
