Roland Emmerich directs this political thriller based around the
notion that William Shakespeare was not in fact the author of the
canon of plays attributed to him. In Elizabethan England, political
intrigue abounds as the Tudors and the Cecils battle it out over
the succession of Queen Elizabeth I (Joely Richardson/Vanessa
Redgrave), and the Essex Rebellion mobilises against her. Enter the
dashing and wildly talented Edward de Vere, 17th Earl of Oxford
(Jamie Campbell Bower/Rhys Ifans), who not only fathers an
illegitimate son in a clandestine incestuous relationship with
Queen Elizabeth, but is also the secret author of the plays labeled
with the name of William Shakespeare (Rafe Spall).
Social psychologist Ben Monroe has returned to Tokyo after a failed
marriage, determined to seek out his former lover Kozue. His
estranged teenage daughter Mazzy reluctantly flies from California
to join him. On the flight she meets a young Japanese man, Koji, a
cult survivor, who tells her the story of the luminous night
princess Kaguya, a powerful tale of beauty and obsession. As Ben
delves deeper into the underworld in search of Kozue, Mazzy and
Koji are compelled to follow, and their four lives dangerously
intersect as past and present collide.
