At the height of his fame, Oscar Wilde angers the Marquis of Queensberry by having what is (correctly) believed to be a romantic relationship with Queensberry’s son Lord Alfred Douglas (“Bosie”), who is twenty years Wilde’s junior. When Queensberry slanders Wilde, the artist decides to take the matter to court and brings about his own downfall.
