London, 1593: the Elizabethan Era. Young, handsome William Shakespeare (Joseph Fiennes) is craving inspiration due to his failing creativity. He seeks a soul mate to cure his writer's block, so he may continue to work on his upcoming play. Fate would leave its mark, and love will show its face in the form of Lady Viola (Gwyneth Paltrow), a woman of means, beauty, and stature whose one joy in present life is attending plays, reading poetry, and carrying the hope of one day being on stage herself. Shakespeare and Viola soon find their attraction to be more than just inspired, they have fallen in love with each other.
