Description
London, 1878. A city of secrets and shadows. Here, three extraordinary lives intersect, giving birth to a legendary tale. Bram Stoker, fresh from Dublin, finds inspiration in the city's dark corners, where the streets whisper tales of murder and mystery. His friend Oscar Wilde navigates the gossip and scandal that swirls around him, while the theatre's volcanic leading man, Henry Irving, will stop at nothing to ensure Bram's success. Amidst the drama, a beautiful and bold actress, Ellen Terry, captivates the hearts of both men. A story of secret love, public performance, and the power of art to transcend the darkness.
