Set in late 16th-century Stratford-upon-Avon, this lyrical reimagining of Maggie O’Farrell’s bestselling novel explores the quiet grief and fierce love behind one of literature’s most enigmatic figures. When Agnes (Jessie Buckley), a healer with a preternatural sensitivity to the world around her, suffers an unthinkable loss, her husband William (Paul Mescal), a struggling playwright in London, is left to grapple with absence and meaning. With delicate restraint, director Chloé Zhao weaves a story not of Shakespeare himself, but of those left in the margins, most of all a boy whose name would echo through time. A moving meditation on art, memory and the ghosts we carry.
